Slimline pen & pencil in Bocote

[silver]

This is my set that I managed to get finished today..

Must give over playing and start to turn pens again.. seem to have been in the cave for a long time and not achieved much..

Bocote wood with friction polish finish.

quite a dark wood to take pictures of.. can't really see the grain of the wood in the picture..

As you say Eamonn they are a tad dark in the pic, but I know they look great from past experience of seeing your work.

I know what you mean about being in the man creche and not turning, I keep going in there and not coming out with a lot. A lovely pair of pens there, nicely turned and finished.

Lovely matching set Eamonn !!!!

No mistaking that distinctive Bocote grain pattern even if the wood is darker than usual, lovely pair Eamonn, nicely made

Someone please solve the dark and meaningful pic problem in the meantime I like the shape of your pens, the dark timber show is my problem with digital as well coming from B/W where detail black and white were necessary the Groom invariably in dark suit and the bride in mostly white for so long.

Yep nice pair Eamonn,

I too know what you mean, go into the shed, come back out with nothing but a trail of dust following me into the house, ''what you made?'' says Paula, ''more bloody holes, getting as bad as Neil!!!'' Made three things I think since Christmas & only happy with 1 of them!!!
