Tempest with a chestnut burr

Took a little time out from painting my nutcrackers and turned this pen. Just could not get the photo right.

Painting your 'nut crackers' is that dangerous???
Seriously....very nice bit of wood on that...very nice

I know Mark it does sound dangerous as well as painful but can now see the end of them soon, I have not been in the shed for a little while just needed something to get back and do something

5 is a good number of Nut Crackers Derek just returned from an emergency Ambo visit around midnight, the heart Doc may have to go in soon.

IMHO the Tempest requires special treatment to fatten up the lower half to give a better balance, this you did in style with just the right blank mate.Love the pen.
