Pics of My First Pens

[Dave Crabbs]

I just made my first pens :D . I saw a pen turning demo at Woodcraft and learned a lot from it. The pens on the left are Black Walnut and the one on the right (the first one I turned) is Cocobolo. They are finished with Hut Crystal Coat. Click on the pic to see full size.

Nice job Dave.

Wish my first pens came out looking that good.

Good job, Dave! :) Crazy, but I usually have MORE problems trying to keep a straight barrel than I do putting contours into it! :o You done good and keep it up! :cool:

Nicely done Dave,

I see many happy stuffed stockings in your future!:D

Dave,
Nice work. I just turned my first Cocobolo pen and I love that stuff. You couldn't have picked 2 better species as far as I am concerned.
