thuya burl, sirocco pen

First time I have turned Yew. My neighbor removed a very old Yew and I got the trunk pieces. Cut one section into 65 pen blanks. I have always been impressed with the Yew you all make.

Collected some 40 years ago a special timber,in this one more precious because the sapwood blends so well. Kind regards Peter.:goesred::goesred::goesred:

This one turned out nice its two different types of wood. The picture doesn't do it justice. I need to work on my photographic skills.

Not a very good photograph I need to improve my camera skills. This is one of ten the guy originally wanted me to make one hundred. I told him no. It's a hobby, not a business.

I received 3 beautiful pens from John (Fortress) as fundraisers for Blind Veterans UK. Thank you so much John for your generosity it is very much appreciated as I’ve not turned any pens since November due to health issues & the fundraising Pen well has nearly run dry. Woody, bless him has sent...
