2 letter openers
That orange wood, whatever it's called, and something that smells really strongly of lemon when it's cut. Lemon myrtle? Lemon gum?
I like letter openers, I hope they sell so I can make more.
Talking about which, how much should I sell them for? I'm going to make a set of the orange - pen, pencil, letter opener (sierra types)

Nice little units Eliza.
Timber maybe Lemon Myrtle as I have never had a lemony smell from Lemon Scented Gum.
Lemon Myrtle leaves make a great tea.

Nice letter openers... the top one looks like Ossage Orange, don't know about lemon smelling wood (sounds nice to work with though)
It's only a mistake if you don't learn from it.
