Bethlehem Olive
I was wondering if anybody can direct me to a supplier of Bethlehem Olive. I have a few religious friends including a Local Minister, Church Secretary, plus a few other dedicated church people..
I thought I might start getting organised for Christmas. I know, it is nearly the beginning of March but I need a long lead in time. My tutor is a very busy man and I have to book a time when he has a weak moment and I can catch him offguard..
Peter
ps. Also a supplier of some Holly for my not so religious friends.

You might get lucky with someone in Aus, but most suppliers are OS. If you do get some, ensure they come with a certificate of authentisity.
If you don't mind the fake stuff, still beautiful spalted olive, I have some at my place you can make a blank out of.

They go well with the 'fishers of men' kit too. There was a group buy of BOW a while ago but I don't remember the source. I have a couple of blanks spare, just depending how many you want.

Thanks to everybody for the replies.
Kim, Where do you get the "Fishers of Men" kit from.
Really, I only need one BOW for certain, for the Minister, but two would be better as the other would be for his Secretary who runs the parish and was an ex Secretary to a few Governor - Generals in Canberra.
The other people can accept what they get.

You would be better off dealing with Monty here Wooden Wonders
The fishers of men kits are available from Jimmy at Pacifica Fishers of Men Pen Kit (10k Gold)

If there's one thing I've learnt is that when you need one of something, order 2 or 3. That way the first one will go great. If you only order 1, it will go badly at some point and you'll really wish you had another. Just like insurance, really
Good luck with it. BOW really does come up a treat

You can also get the 'fishers' kits from 043 TURNING i think but not sure who their supplier is. Mine came from Jimmy and his service was excellent. Not saying that 043 isn't either. I just can't vouch for their fishers kits. Other stuff I have got there has been great too. Good luck with it all. I have a couple of spare kits if thats all you need.
