Another couple using some blanks from George's Bits of Timber. This one being a Tortuosa Willow Resin blank. Quite easy to turn in the end. Sharp and slow.:biggrin: I used a SNR Gent and a Bolt Action rifle both from Timberbits. The first time I've done s SNR, boy that was a big hole in the blank. :cool:

CA Finish which I am still trying to perfect but these are by far the best results I have had. Pity they are not for me but a commission job. Hope they like them.

I also managed a couple of Tasmanian Eucalyptus Burls and Tasmanian Blackheart Sassafras ones as well.

Brett, Nice job with the Tortured Willow.
From my limited exposure it is not an easy timber to keep the fibres down.
Using George's Blanks is a wise decission.
The Fit and Finish on the Pens looks Great.
Congratulations,
Brian.
 
They are all great looking pens. The resin blank is gorgeous and the burls are amazing. Like the colors, great fit and finish. Great job!
