This example of your work Les gives us all an insight into the complete pen. By this I refer to publications that become famous such as The Complete Angler etc and become part of vocabulary when you simply used just one grit, simple wood then finished it so well dressed the pen in the appropriate gold kit, pictured the whole comprehensibly in great clarity. Over the years viewing and having obtained some of your work following it with interest and wonder the application in your work to infinite detail is never lost with me. I dwell in the pictures marvelling at the skill. At a football match a Mexican Wave indicates the fans approval, no such thing on the forum was tempted to cover a page with exclamation marks.
