Hi Folks:

I got a order (graduation gifts for 2 brothers). The light shaded wood is BOL. Does any know what the dark shaded wood is?
Thank you for your help.

Sanded to 1500, then 10 coats of Mercury Flex combination of thin and medium, then buffed and protected with The Last Coat (ceramic auto finish).

Sorry can't help on the wood but I like the Pens well done

Bocote?

My guess was Bocote as well

It is the diagonal bocote I sent you.

That's another great thing about buying from members—they remember better than I do!!

I'm gonna say diagonal Bocote...

Great job Tony! Agree with everyone else, diagonal Bocote.

Question if you don't mind. What pen kits did you use?

greenacres2 · Dec 12, 2021

Tony used the Professor pen hardware, very nice kit and a well-balanced, comfortable piece. Also goes by the name Exemplar. Great quality for the price. Both Exotic Blanks & Turners Warehouse carry them, probably other outlets. Tony introduced them to me a few years ago, I'm grateful for that!!

The above is correct. I have made them for women (and men), and they liked them. They have a lot of "meat" on the but, they are not too bulky.

If my client is female, I make the barrel almost straight.
