Cypress olive

[flexi]

Hi all,
A couple of Olive Sirocco's....the olive is from a work colleague and has come from a church in Cypress ( legally attained) these will be returning when permitted to go to the archbishop.
The wood is 200+ years old and very very dry, it's fought me all the way....there were 3 blanks but.....

Good morning,

When asked why I turn pens, and that doesn't happen all that often, I reply that I'm looking for the perfect kit, the perfect wood and the perfect 'turn'. It seems that Mark has achieved at least 2 of these goals - without holding the pen, I don't know about the turning but I suspect it's quite excellent.

Congratulations and thanks for sharing.

Rod
