New works

Well sometimes you need to turn to strange sources for pen turning wood. I found these tree staking packages at the Princess Auto store locally.















Each kit has 3 wood stakes about 14 inches long and they looked like interesting wood so for $3.95 a package I bought 5. They are made in China so no identification of the wood but the first pen I made looks like oak to me. The picture is of the Streamline Chrome I made from this wood and the "Cigar" pen is one my son made out of deer antler. We need to make some kind of picture box to get a better shot.
