Brilliant bit of turning Woody but I wish you'd stop showing your "hospital clean" showroom. You're gonna force me to clean out my workshop, dammit:nonono::sob:

That is simply STUNNING !

I must have missed this the other day, but I'm glad I caught it now.

Where do you get your Blackwood from Your Grace ?

I got them from lignaterrae in the for sale forum quite a while ago he was selling them of cheep I think I got 6 of them about 18" long but they are getting harder to get hold of now I got some others about 3 years age and they cost me about £50 each log you just have to keep your eyes open and grab them as soon as you see them
