My first time working cocobolo, I like it! The pic doesn't do the wood justice.

If the pic doesn't do the wood justice, I want to see that pen in person. E-mail me for amy address!Don, aka Pappy,

I used to think that making pens with a lathe was a waste of time. Maybe not!quote:Originally posted by Whaler

Beautyful! I really like Cocobolo. It machines and finishes great, and there is quite a variety in colors and sometimes astonishing figure.

Nice looking pen, Ken. I know what you mean about cocobolo. It never takes a good picture for me but when I'm close enough to write with it, its awesome. I made a polaris pen with my son at Christmas using cocobolo and there was a figure of a man's face in the turned blank. My son loves it.Chuck C
