A favourite timber I have sourced from unusual places this timber came from? via the USA.

Rosewoods vary tremendously from rock hard, cranky to this sweet smelling delightful timber to work with throw in sapwood occasionally a magic combination.

Over here we are like bears coming out of the cave with our weather warmin a little making it more attractive to be in the workshop.

Kind regards Peter.

I like the shapes you have put into this pen. The extension of the center band and all nice job...

the detail on that pen is gorgeous...and I'm talking about the turning, but the wood looks great as well

Beautiful pen Peter. Wonderfully done!

It's a beauty! The gorgeous wood is perfect with the kit and the finish is just gleaming. Great job!

Very nice to see you strutting your stuff again Peter. It's refreshing to see your flair again. I may have missed them but it seems to have been some time since I last saw your cool work?.

You guys must be having mid winter about now in the southern hemisphere?
We are enjoying a wonderful summer weather at the moment here in the UK with the temps nudging 30 deg C. I'm on leave for two weeks and it's barbies every night!!:biggrin:

Keep well.

Very nice looking pen! The detail you put into the turning really sets that pen off!

Thanks guys,

Steven Wilma is recovering as we speak from massive chemo, radiotherapy, surgery has had afew haircuts and getting cheeky again so when our miserable weather phase mid winter picks up I will be on deck fully again. The past most of two years zoomed. Lastweek we celebrated 58 yrs of harmony since we married neat of you to observe my relative absence all the best to you my mate.

Kind regards Peter.

Peter, another stunning pen as usual. Peter's pens are truly a work of a fine craftsman, I am proud to have him as my good friend. I have learned so much from his experience.
