Thuya Burl Jr Victor
I turned this pen a week or two ago, and it has become my favorite, definitely a keeper. I blew a small piece out of the end of the blank while drilling it
, I used a small piece of Huon to patch it, I think it works
. Finished with about 8 coats of CA, the finish is considerably better in real life than the photo shows.

I hate waste ,especially with quality timbers ,I Suspect that you had a small bit of the Thuya left over you might have used as a replacement with a very thin strip of contrasting material between the two as a feature ,but we all find our own ways to do things ,thanks for sharing
cheers ~ John
G'day all !Enjoy your stay !!!

Hey There,
Yes a nice save, but I agree with Texx, I would have matched the save at the other end.

Look like it was a nice blank nicely turned
As for the save as long as you like
