Hey There,

My Step Daughter works for a Kiwi Lady and she wanted a Pen for her, made from NZ Timber, the only stuff that I have is Ancient Swamp Kauri, I bashed this one out today as I had a spare hour, ( been a while) I ended up cracking the blank when I started to put it together, so had to do a reclaim and re-finish, I covered the crack I think, I sanded to 12000 MM and then about 20 coats of CA, it's off to Laser Len for the finishing touches.

Nice work Harry, your ancient Kauri is a lot darker than the stuff I have

Great save on that Ancient Swamp Kauri blank!
The blank sure has some nice coloring.
Form, Fit and Finish look fantastic.
She will be very proud to own that one.
Well done mate!
