First of all thanks very much to Frank&Earnest for sending me the Olive wood in time for me to make this for the FIL for xmas.

F&R tells me this has been 25 years drying and it was pretty hard and took a while to sand. Hope you like it.

Yes a tiny one, the screw was really tight in the timber. I'm just getting up the courage to give it one final twist with the allen key.:B

Very nice, HH, glad that it suited you.:2tsup: Maybe worth inserting a little lubricant before that last twist of the key?
