    Default Olive success

    After following some forum advice, ie, sharp tools, better gluing and above all patience, I made this pen from some old olive from Wagga. I also made a ciger pen which turned out well, but some one pinched it. Hopefully I will get better at this, regards Andrew

    That is a nice piece of olive and a very nice pen well done
    I can see why the second one was pinched

    It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.
