Hi All,
Well a good friend has a holiday home in Cyprus and brings me back sticks of ancient Olive and others...he gave me a load 3 weeks ago. I got a phone call yesterday, he wants some pens from the wood for next week.....these will be returning shortly...
I did manage 6 today!!

Good results there Mark.
Thought you worked for a living.
I’m retired and can’t produce the amount that you do.

I've not turned much branch wood, it's been an interesting process, not needed to dry anything as most of these branches are years old....
Apparently the next lumps are even better:praying:
