Hello folks

I dont make many pens anymore but I made this today for one of my friendly timber suppliers
- it pays to keep on their good side  ;D

George, that is not only one very nice pen, but gift as well, should get alot of points there, did they supply the timber used, it would give more meaning to them if they had done.

I hope my timber supplier is not part of this forum, I would not want him getting ideas!

George, as ever, the effect of the Burr and your ability with resins is stunning, I trust he was well pleased with the gift.
Oh Lord, Lead me not into temptation…

...Oh who am I kidding, follow me, I know a shortcut!
