Thanks John,

To avoid dust settling on the wet finish, I dry in another room away from my shop.

Hi Les. Well, I just hope that whoever you sell or give this magnificent pen to, realises just how much care & time & fine attention to detail you have given to create this great pen. Too many people these days think that 'everything' just pops out the end of a computer operated machine. Great work mate !!

Les, you keep making beautiful pens, appreciate the skill, Amos

Les ,

Neat treatment of the Knotted Blank. I will try again to describe my feelings with regard to this pen and others.

Unashamed candour in the presentation pics here it is front, back, sideways , upside down in several views all crystal clear and gleaming.

Simplicity personified I swear you could make a pen from a packing case look great.

As a celebration of my respect next week I will send some choice Aussie standouts for you to weave your magic.

To this end please send me by pm your particulars my filing system is erratic. Want you to know I vote with my feet.

Kind regards Peter.

I take my hat off to you Les and drink in your honour I would get halfway through that pen and throw it in the worry about it later bin. My time in the shed is very rare these days so if it does not go smoothly then I just move on to the next pen.
For you the time and devotion has paid of with this great looking pen. As Pariss said I hope the recipient appreciates your effort. well done

Another beauty Les
