Olive wood in gentleman kit finishing with BLO & CA

Oooooooo, that's nice !

Looks well turned and a great finish, almost tempting to put up with the runny eyes and try CA again.

That is super Geo. You have an excellent touch with the chisel and a good eye for nice wood.

If you wear googles and a mask it fine

Very nice well done.

Nicely made & beautiful timber, a winning combination Geo

, almost tempting to put up with the runny eyes and try CA again.

Try having your extractor running behind the blank as you apply the CA Phill, I've found that is enough to prevent the fumes stinging my eyes

Geo that is beautiful Olive Wood there is a massive variety of colour in the timber depending where it comes from the age of the tree etc, simply wild grain mate the combination is astounding a real mellow yellow cream colour in the timber. I made one a couple of days ago will show it soon as well. I have some wild stuff from Bethlehem in various blank sizes.

Very grateful you showed your pen just now glad I put up another pen today look forward to more pens from you.

Kind regards Peter.

Dear Peter
Thanks for the comment
I would add to your comment the Bethlehem blanks are more darker because are drying in water
Thanks again
