    Smile couple of xmas pressies

    No 1 son wanted something for SWMBO (his mum, but he hasn't learnt that yet!) whilst the main gift arrives from the US

    so I made these(coolabah burl finished with shellawax) I also worked out I'm not the world's best production turner. Whaler1's post the other day reminded me of the quikunpik idea.

    Dunno why I have to make the gift for him to give to his mum

    Anyway I'd made these earlier for him. Pen and pencil chrome and gunmetal Sierras clad in urban camo
