Dave,
Welcome indeed with a fresh approach lots of enthusiasm lovely timber such an introduction no doubt even long term makers would envy. Refreshing post, no recriminations here they are well shown and proud pens. I am thrilled you used local timber especially to an industry around you the significance will not be lost on the receivers.
Congratulations
look forward to your future postings and to hear the results of your labour from the commission (how they were received).
Kind regards Peter.
