Finished pens after pen finishing question

[Mike Minto]

Here are some XMAS presents the wife will be giving away. In the picture of 5 pens, they are, from left to right: sapele, cocobolo, spalted maple, walnut, and olive - all Cigars, as you can tell. Finished with brushable lacquer and/or CA glue, except for the Coco pen which was 2-wheel buffed. Oh, the small box was just for a lark, it's hollow; made of mahogany. :D

Those are some great looking pens and will make some nice gifts.

Great looking pens, Mike. I really like that spalted maple. It really stands out.

[Steve Schlumpf]

Very nice work Mike! I like the photos also cause I can see some of the detail work! Good job on getting everything tapered to the right diameter - looks very clean.

I also like the spalted maple - the contrast of the grain really grabs your attention!

Nice work! Thanks for sharing!
