    Default Bottle Stopper No.3 - Olive

    First of all thanks very much to Frank&Earnest for sending me the Olive wood in time for me to make this for the FIL for xmas.

    F&R tells me this has been 25 years drying and it was pretty hard and took a while to sand. Hope you like it.

    HH.

    Yes a tiny one, the screw was really tight in the timber. I'm just getting up the courage to give it one final twist with the allen key.

    Very nice, HH, glad that it suited you. Maybe worth inserting a little lubricant before that last twist of the key?
