This weeks Pen of the Week chosen by Bill Mooney is the Omega RB in Alder Burr made by GeordieB.

Bill said "I've looked at some cracking pens this week and the decision has not been an easy one but the one I keep coming back to is GeordieB's alder burr.
I like the natural beauty and the turning and finish is superb"

Under turned on both pen and blank, very poor finish and a bad match between kit and blank. Shite finish and a poxy looking photo.

Only joking mate it's a stunner :kiss:
