Recent swap to Canada
I made an emphasis on Steampunk for the receiver. The timber rest is Brown Mallee flat matte finish, year of birth penny. The Blue Air gun anodised Aluminium timber Bethlehem Olive Wood. The Green Pen hex cut Cobra Skin, morse code for the letter K the C for Cobra Skin Blank real initial of the receiver. The pen blanks Conkerberry to die for, Huon Pine beaut Burl and Crosscut Hairy Oak amongst the best I have seen. Overseas freight etc making this my last swap on any forum.
Kind regards Peter.

Another work of art Peter.
The cobra skin pen is unique and perfectly turned. I like your signature 'Penny' you include on the pen rests.

Postage always gets in the way of having a good swap....but what can ya do?
The turnings are awesome, and all the little 'extra details' make a perfect gift to your swap partner!

Yes very nice work and I agree with all the other comments. Although the postage is not cheap you can get a reasonable amount into the flat rate boxes.
