A pair of Sierras in Summat wood Burr that had a lot of wee beasties holes that have now become a feature. Also a shrub root that I didn't finish the nib end properly because yet again I was too lazy to sharpen the skew.

I like the Sierras Paul but it is a shame you didn't finish the slimline properly !!!!

I may take the slimline apart and finish it properly Terry at a later date but it definately is a seconds bin at the moment :thumbs:

Geez I must be on something, I just noticed its a streamline... too much ca me thinks :funny:

Great looking timber on the Sierras.
Nicely done.
Do you sand with the bushings in place?
The Streamline nib end it looks dark from sanding with bushings in place.
