From this ugly branch to this beautiful pen. This branch comes from my old elementary school in Pueblo CO. School is now shut down and an
abandoned.

As you see, the wood in its natural state is very light, well this is what it looks like after I changed its color.

Happy with the finish look...

This is what you call a blowout, I could not find the missing pieces, so I had to improvise and still made this pen.

Is that stabilized wood? I have problems with that sometimes also, usually just start over. Had a batch of black and white ebony that would not stay together no matter what, also a stick of black palm that I gave up on.
