I turned a Leveche rollerball using a Brown Mallee Burr blank. I used epoxy to glue the blank to the tube and after bringing into the house for a couple of days cracks appeared along some of the burr lines. I finished it using Phil's melamine technique. Any advice to prevent this much...

I nice piece of Mallee burr from Phil to make this one. Size 5 Bock nib. I went with a 12mm cap thread on this one to give it a go with 10mm section thread. I will be going for a slimmer version next time as my confidence grows.

As promised Brown Mallee Burl as I only know it ,ie I have selectively bought over 40 yrs. In fact the larger Cue Stick piece and the other pen blank must be in the order of that old cut,well dried prior to this. I find it photographs shyly with a slight cast . However this is the (IMHO) the...

Hi All, I have only just noticed that I have the Help 4 Heroes colours in the wrong order.:rolling: Oh well the next one will be correct. The wood was marked up as Fruit Mallee. Great wood to turn. The Leveche is another super quality kit from Beaufort Ink. Leveche Help for Heroes Pen. -...

A few weeks ago someone posted pics of a pen called The Cosmopolitan. It is available from PSI in the States. I found a very similar pen at Axminster called a D-SW series from Craftpro. The Red Mallee is a fantastic wood but it had a few hairline cracks and that trapped my polish. Apart from...

This is a Taylors Mirfield Shakespeare Rollerball in Rib Fruited Mallee. First Shakespeare for me. I deeply love this kit, so beautifully engineered. I turned this parallel, simple cylinders, just to showcase the wood. The Mallee was lovely to turn, very dense and fine. No stain on the wood...

My first go with the Tempests today, this one dressed from a Mallee Burr blank. Usual sanding sealer, 3 coats melamine and buffed. Not a great pic Im afraid. Also my first go at click pens, I like the weight and feel of this one, so much so, it's now mine.

I have so many variations in Brown Mallee and a passion for the timber, managed a couple of hours in the workshop. This Burl came from over a thousand miles away. Peter.

Three of my favourites grown in Australia I guess I could bore you with several hundred more but I just walked past these three scraps. I wiped them with Organoil an Australian finish it nearly removed the colour detail from the Conkerberry, then the Grove timber Olive then relly special brown...

Hi all! I just made a little collection of burl pens. From the left : thuya, jarrah, locust (visiting a friend, I noticed a few bumps on some of his fire wood logs, I jumped on the chain saw...), briar (from an old stock of ebauchon blocks for pipes), and fruited mallee. All of them based on a...
