The finish didn't come out well in the photos but I sanded the wood to 800grit and then used a mop and green compound to polish the wood,topped off with renaissance wax

Also got a few acrylic JR Gent FPs but I haven't got any pictures of them yet

Certainly a cut above the rest, well made and finished.

I was about to ask about the mosaic pins but Mark beat me to it. *Apparently* they are quite easy to make - a few lengths of brass rod inside a length of brass tube, then fill with resin. Can't see any way for that to go wrong ...

Now that is classy, it all looks 'just right' to me. It looks highly functional too. The rivets do set it apart though Matty . :drool:
