Finished tonight

[Tom.1946]

Just finished these three. Have kits for Slimline/Streamline pens, so got these three done, and then found no tubes in the blanks that I had precut. So will have to wait till tomorrow to get them glued in. Please remind me not buy
CHACATE PETO WOOD again. Found it very hard to cut and get it down to the bushes......
That is the dark wood pen, the acrylic pen apparently is called Passing Clouds and the light coloured pen is Tanga Tanga wood.

the light coloured pen is Tanga Tanga wood.

That wood would be Panga Panga. Anyway, good job on the pens, Tom. Keep them coming.

I bought two blanks on the same night nearly certain one was called Panga Panga and the other was Tanga Tanga. Unless they have mixed up the names. All I go by is name written on the blank....

Thanks for the info...I stand corrected. Tanga Tanga is a new one on me, I know it as Albizia.
