Atrax

[Todd in PA]

I just got some Atrax kits. Instant new favorite (for now). They feel solid and I really love the clip style and the way it holds a shirt pocket.

Here are the three I made today. Italian Olive, Redwood Burl, and Spalted Magnolia. Comments welcome. The olive was full of hidden cracks which I simply filled with CA and left visible.

Very nice! They all look great but that Spalted Magnolia grabs my attention.

Beautiful trio Todd. Never bothered me for filling cracks, wood has character and that is part of it's beauty. Well done.

Nice work! Love the burl. The Atrax has always been one of my favorites. Classy yet understated, let's the blank shine.

All look good to me but agree with you about filling cracks

Very nice selection of blanks. Three to be proud of.

I like those! I purchased some Atrax kits last week and I'll give them a go this week (hopefully). I don't mind the cracks and voids too much. I look at them as a bonus challenge.
