[Jon Lanier]

I do have to say that making a few quickie presents sure is nice. Below are two more Atlas pens. They are birthday presents for some friends of ours.

Walnut and the other is Acrylic Strawberry Swirl.

Lovely looking work, Jon.

They look very good, seems like you are getting your A,B's in order. If I may give you the C to make the pens more attractice try finding some wood with some character, that alone will make a world of difference. That is excactly how we all begun. Maple oak and domestic woods that we had roaming arround. Try some exotics.
Enjoy and congrats.
PS: I hope you don't take this the wrong way. Comes from the heart

That's the nice thing about pens Jon...They're quick, low cost, and people will cherish them for a long time cuz you made them. Way to go.;)

Now go find some burls in a ditch somewhere.:D
