    Default doing us aussies proud

    hi guys
    early january on a f/book penturning page one of the guys from the USA had sadly been ...

    umm dont know how else to say this but sadly conned out of his PITH on the IAP , 1 way only

    and he was asking for advice on what he should do , most told him to report the person which he did end up doing and since he got ripped off , i put up my hand and offered to see if he was interested in doing a swap with me as he will end up with some nice aussie timbers as well as a nice pen
    and he decided to take up my offer, he got his pen and blanks this morning and is very happy with it
    the pen is a pristina dressed with purple gidgee with a ca finish , sorry pics are average as i just got my light tent and took them back then

    Thats why I like you Aussies...you act like Texans, just on another continent.
