    This is why I like pen turning do much. You can utilize the smallest of hard to find timbers and make something really beautiful! !
    Also easy to transport small pieces around when or if you find them.

    Great job again Peter and good job on the photography, it really does the craftsmanship and timber justice

    Great looking timber.
    Nicely done mate.
    Reminds me a lot of Figured Maple.
