Here is my latest pen. The wood is Bethlehem Olive Wood. The design was engraved on an Epilog Helix 45w using a rotary attachment.
Speed 80 Power 100 1200 dpi.
The first one was made for a family member.

Wow, that looks great,
My neice's boyfriend is graduating from boot camp soon and that would make a perfect gift.

Would you mind sharing the file?

Very Nice detail Michael!
I don't see much Bethlehem Olive Wood that clear. Most of what I use has lots of figure and color. I love the contrast. Hope to some day turn pens from it also. Thanks again and hope you can post more,

Beautiful work again Michael. Looks like you used a lot of greyscale to get the shaping, truly a gorgeous gift for the recipient.

That's really nice. I may have to make one of those for my sister in the Navy, using her seal of course:) Just to let her know how much I appreciated her taxi service as a Marine:D
