A few of my work
Thought i would show you all a few pics of some of my pens.
Hope you enjoy.
After doing the pen for Fred in the swap i decided to make myself a new everyday pen. An M3 metal cobalt blue blank with black titanium Baron kit.
Next up is an African Black-wood & Holly swirling segmented pen.
Imperial pen set in English Yew.
Captive ring pen, made from dyed Maple.
Double closed end pen, i think it was Thuya burl.
Then just a couple of pens and some stoppers made from my home brew resins.

Beautiful work Andy, I see you caught the custom finial bug
That M3 is very well done and the Yew has some really wild grain in it.
Very nice representation of your work, thanks for showing and sharing.

Wow, nice collection
My favourite is the double close ended pen, but I did enjoy looking through the home brew acrylics. I love that cigar kit in platinum, and you've done a good job with it.
Cheers,
Dave

Many thanks for all the comments, i must admit that the Yew is one of my favorite woods to work with.
Just glad when i was working as a tree surgeon i managed to get quite a bit.
