Nicely proportioned piece Dennis. The Acacia grain works well and for some reason the offset of the pith on the base makes me smile....it just catches the eye.
Glad you had a great day with Mark
Cheers

   Wider,
              I had a teaching day with Mark a few years ago It was wonderful Mark's teaching methods are so easy to understand and he always

 has time to explain processes in great detail. Mark also does a great demonstration for Clubs.

                                               Regards John
