    Very nice , the black titanium really sets the burl off nicely.

    (Hey Sam this is very similar to your unidentified piece that you got from Peter)
    Cheers

    Nice.

    (Still not quite the right colour, though...)
    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.

    Vlade,
    Wow, that is very attractive! I have always been afraid of turning burl down that thin because I was afraid of cracking. I guess I won't next time .

    To avoid cracking I reinforce inside of blank with thin CA, glue tubes with epoxy and also after turning and sanding I apply CA and then finish of choice.

    The pen looks good, well turned, I would like to see some more pictures with a bit closer view and a bit more light because somehow I think that pen looks better in presence than in photo, Amos

    Thank you all for kind words. The pen does really look better in presence, but I'm just penmaker. Will try to make bigger efford next time.
