Thread: From France Spanish Olivewood

Hi Peter, Firstly I am not a turner but I do look at most posts re turning. I particularly like the pens made from various woods but am not keen on those made from other materials. Of the all of those made from wood that I have so far seen this one is an absolute stand out,by far my favourite and one I would be very pleased to have in my pocket. For you I would think this one is a keeper. Great work.

Definately more fun than cleaning up hehe, as usual an outstanding example of elegance and workmanship well done indeed . cheers~ John

another stunner peter!

One very impressive piece of wood there Peter. Well done on your design as well.

Very nice looking pen. Love the way you have done the upper section. Looks great. Well done.

Peter

That is a stunning piece of timber - you have doen it justice

Peter, that has great character, well done, Amos

Beautifully made and finished. Timber is exceptional to say the least.

Absolutely beautiful Peter. I like the design and the variation on a straight streamline. Great piece of timber.

I have always liked the fact you don’t do the straight line look, but add a bead or groove or some other detail that makes the pen unique and beautiful.
The color and figure in that piece of wood is fantastic, you did it justice.

Great Form, Fit and Finish with a nice choice of plating to show of beautiful piece of timber.
Excellent craftsmanship as usual.
Well done Peter!

Nice timber!

Is this a Trimline kit?

Thanks everybody.

The kit is a Slimline using as my habit a Streamline Centre Band sold separately by David at Timberbits.(he has Gold, Chrome, Black etc) It enables me to make different designs using Slimlines and I confess freely I have not exhausted my choice of this basic pen kit as yet.

Kind regards Peter.
