A Celtic Cross made from 1mm plastic, the wood used is Box Wood, Blood Wood, and African Blackwood as the center band. Finished using CA glue and polished with Meguiars Scratch X.

Up until now, I've not really wanted to make pens, but I must admit that if anything was goiung to persude me to try, this would be it. A stunning pen; you must be very proud of it.
Education is important, but wood turning is importanter.

Where did you get Blood Wood in the UK?

I've never seen it this side of the pond!
