3 New JR Gents
Found these glued up ready to turn in a shelf, so thought I would knock them out while I had a bit of spare time
Tiger Myrtle, Cocobolo and a blue cast Banksia. All finished with CA.
The only problem from my perspective was that I must have forgot to blacken the tube on the banksia before gluing it in

Banksia gets my vote, just because it's a new idea, I guess. All three are real nice

All three are nice pens well done
I can't see a problem with the way the Banksia turned out with unpainted tube
