Segmented Pen

[Raymond Overman]

A friend of mine is a professional woodturner and turns complex segmented forms. His segments are a little different than most I've seen. He does compound cuts and cuts segments on the bias and reglues them which makes very insteresting symetric rings.

So, we got the bright idea of using his cutoffs to make some pens. Here's the result. I think there is a little of everything in there.

I also included a picture of one of his pieces so you can get an idea of what I'm talking about. You can check out his site here (http://www.briansykeswoodturning.com)
