Really great work and finish mate
These are stunning Itzhak I like both the boxes and the pens. Looking at the box I like the way you have built these with a half inner tenon something I would never have thought of doing also as a newbie do you mind if I ask how you finished the pen and boxes to such a high shine?
Yup, beautiful. Is the black ebony, Blackwood or an acrylic, don't know if I missed that, but if it's the wood, how did you stop the ebony or Blackwood dust contaminating the olive wood?
