JR Gent ~ Burl
Hey Everyone,
Here is a couple of pictures of a JR Gent Roller Ball from Timberbits, It is wrapped in either a Red Mallee burl or Red Coolibah Burl, I'm not sure which,
I gave it about 15 coats of CA then wet sanded and MM through all the grades
Thanks for looking, comments welcome

and that If i had taken a photo from the other side there is a slight issue there which means it might be disassemble #3
,
I wont give in as it is too nice a blank, that and I am stubborn
and wont let it get the better of me
