Gentlemens Rosewood pen
Got time to turn this one up for a good friend of mine, ive since decided it would be to big for her hands so i think im just going have to keep it myself
It came from a VERY highly figured piece of rosewood, you can see some figuring but not as much as before i turned it
Cheers, Mitch

Nice pen Mitch BUT you could do better with the pic because if you are going to go to that much effort to make a nice pen you should be sure to show it to the world and our members with the best pic you can.
Pen looks great
Cheers Ian

Great Pen !. I love Rosewood, terrific timber to work with, especially for pen & box making. It's a bonus when you find a peice with such red colouring too. I drive the blokes in my local timber yard mad, searching for the red heart Rosewood. They all run and hide when they see me pull in to the yard, haha.

Nicely turned and finished.
The second pics look so much better, couldnt make out much detail in the first one.
