Thanks Woody, Vince at Turners Workshop has some amazing blanks and quite a few whacky ones. I could spend a fortune buying blanks from him. That one is nothing compared to a pen I did for a customer whose girlfriend likes yellow!

Nice work Ray. I've turned coolibah in the past and seem to remember it took a lot of ca to hold it together towards the end.

He does have some very interesting stuff and what a nice bloke to deal with. I'm lucky he's only 20 minutes froim me though he is a bit tricky to catch.

I usually spend at leastt an hour just rooting around his "Alladins cave". I daren't tell the missus how much I've spent but I do come away with some great stuff.
