    Default This was Unexpected

    I found this when I was turning the Dayacom Knight The tiger bands didn't show up until I started sanding, I originally was going to go with a Gold kit but went Chrome instead because of the Bands

    The wood on Both the Streamy and the Knight Came from the Same Slab Cut from a tree thats about 15 years old and air dried in Townsville for 12 months { in my Mums shed }

    Both Sanded to 2000 dry and then wet sand Micro to 12000 EEE and Shellawax
    Cheers
    Glenn

    That first pen looks great, almost can't believe that both pens are from the same p[iece of wood. Amos

    Nice pen but am I missing something? Whats the wood?
    It's only a mistake if you don't learn from it.

    Amazing they both came from the same slab. I've never seen that first kit before. Does it work the same as the Polaris? Looks very similar.

    I think they're the ones Timberbits is importing from Dayacom - a special version of the Polaris.
