Default Just Puttering Around

Decided to do a little puttering around in the shop this afternoon .
Spotted a nice peiece of ebony that someone was so kind enough to send to me many moons ago and a little crying voice was coming from it saying me first . . me first . . me first.
Hate to hear wood cry so I cut a pen blank out of part of it and added a little rock maple and voila . . . a pen was born.
Chrome Round Top Euro with CA finish.

Very nice pen! Do you use CA to glue the Ebony and Maple together?

Thanks all for the comments.

Yes Dave I use CA for the laminations and the CA/BLO process for the finishing. The sanding dust from the ebony is like coal dust and I was afraid of bleed over of the black into the white but I used a method that worked fine with zero bleed-over.
