    Default Peter's Gaboon Ebony Cigar

    Neil (dai sensai ) and I spent the day in his shed today. While Neil was playing around with his resin sparkle pens I was on his lathe and under his supervision I made these two gaboon ebony pens.

    The Gaboon Ebony blanks came from Woodcraft in the USA which my daughter brought home for me. Neil and I were happy with the outcome. One of the pens is going to be a Christmas gift for a Doctor friend and the other will be for my office desk.

    Lots of presents are on the agenda for the next few weeks.

    Peter

    It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.
