    Wow, Dick that is really beautiful. Does Redheart hold its color? Or, is it like Purpleheart.

      Steve, they say Redheart will loose it's color when exposed to the sun. I turned a lamp for LOML about 6 months ago and it is still as red as the day I turned it. I am thinking that the CA finish on the pen may help.

        Nice job, Dick. Wish I were so talented. What is redheart? Is it from a tree, a bush, etc. ?

            Great job, as always. I think the matching piece on the cap is a nice touch.
