Rosewood Cocobolo Double ender.

[Penpal]

I started off with the intention of hexing, gave that up cause judging is by us and we all know each others different work. I enter to support the forum only. Enjoyed making this pen. I let a bit more light into the pics cause the timber is very deep. This piece came from a board I bought in the North of the USA from a guy who lost out using this timber(with a King size allergy to Rosewood) and a mate cut it down and sent it to me never cheap I like this timber the glass like finishing is incredible. One more comp to go this year after that I will not enter any more it seems like an unhappy thing to do for me so many members and so few entries.

Kind regards.....................Peter.

That's a stunner and the lustre and deep sheen is incredible. I take my hat off to you sir!

I accept the challenge mate let the competition be judged by someone outside of the forum bit like footy, nothing better than an international to stir the imagination. My next door neighbor came from Sheffield in the 40,s to the middle 50,s when I married, great guy. He worked as a carpenter previous on the wonderful Sydney Harbor Bridge.

Send me your addy etc by pm and I will send you a long blank from the same board, about a foot long by about an inch squared. Cut across the grain.

Kind regards Peter.
