Pen I made for recent pen swap in USA
Just thought I would show you all the pen that I made for Stick rounder (Doug) in the recent swap done on the IAP. Its a Rhodium Gentlemans done in Queensland Red Ebony (Thanks Sam) and is finished in about 10 coats of WOP.
I recieved a pen from him today but will post later.
Cheers Ian

It does certainly have character,and a well done pen,
BUT, Rum Pig should be careful what he says- he will have his property swarming with turners looking for Ironwood! Amos
