    Default Peppermill for a friend.

    This peppermill uses a Crushgrind mechanism and has been made as a gift for a good friend.
    The body is from Black Heart Sassafras and the top from Wenge. As you can see, the recipient is a 1948 vintage.

    And my head I'd be a scratchin'
    While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
    If I only had a brain.

    That's a pretty cool mill. I read the Cold Duck description on the mill and am wondering how grapes are spelled in your neck of the woods. Is that a typo? do they really mean GROPES or should the have spelled it as GRAPES? ................ Jerry (in Tucson)

    Hi Jerry,
    Maybe was a typo………but then again, if you go to Coogee gropes are far more prevalent than grapes!!

    The sassafras body is 70 mm diameter x 245 mm high

    The wenge Cork is 34 mm diameter x 64 mm long
