    Default Tiger Snake

    Nai sent me a Tiger Snake through the mail so I chopped it up and turned it into a cigar.

    He certainly makes some beautiful blanks. I don't know what he puts in them but they are so hard even a beginner couldn't shatter them. I had to spin the lathe so fast that it thought it was an FA-18 jet turbine winding up for take off. Lovely blanks.

    Thanks

    Acrylic is not my favourite blank. I much prefer beautiful timber and by and large will stick to that in future.
