    Default Blackwood Roman Harvest

    With xmas coming up I always get a few orders for pens. This one is for a repeat customer from last year. The timber is blackwood (from Mapleman) and has been crosscut at about 60°. Unfortunately the photo's haven't picked up the full glow of the timber. Finish the usual 20 coats CA, MM, brasso and Hut wax.

    cheers

    I was going to say Tasmanian Fiddleback. The pen looks good. Well done on the turning.
