Streamline dai sensei blank
I scored this blank along with some others off Neil (dai sensei) at the get together at Prime Movers a while back.
It's a streamline and the blank was one of the bunch I got from Neil, It came up really well and no problems using sharp chisel.
Thanks Neil. Sorry I couldn't do the blank justice with my photography, it looks 10 times better in the flesh and the colours much more vibrant.Reality is no background music.
Cheers John

You really did a great job job on Neil's blank!
Excellent fit and finish with a nice choice of kit and plating to complement the blank.
Great collaborative effort!
Well done.
