Baron and Sedona

[Richard in Smithville]

A few from this week. A Chrome Baron in Wenge, and a Gold Sedona in Zebra Wood. Both have been sanded to 600 grit and finished with Blo/ca. Thank you for looking.

Both look sharp Richard, but I like the way that Zebrawood stands out!

Well said Bill! Ditto for me Richard. Either way can't lose, both are beauts

Thanks guys. I've just come upstairs from glueing up some more blanks for tomorrow night. The wood for these pens came from the nice package in this post( http://www.bt3central.com/showthread.php?t=54337 ). Certainly a good use of one mans scraps.

I knew there were photos in our future :-)

Nice work, both look very classy.

BTW is it true what they say about the smell when tuning zebra wood?

[Whaler]

Very nice, Richard. Love the Sedona.

Beautiful work, Richard. Are those Woodcraft kits or do you get them by mail-order? Thanks for sharing.

Great stuff

Looks very nice Richard. Isn't it great when we can use the very small "scraps" that others have no use for. It actually helps by putting a higher value on the resources so we will have them there in the future. Regards Bob McDermid a fellow Canadian.

Thank you for all the kind words friends. These are new-to-me kits and were lots of fun. I bought the pen kits from a Canadian supplier( http://www.penblanks.ca/home.php).

Can't really say as I always wear a respirator when turning.
