#32 - modified old slimline pencil in Redwood.

[Painfullyslow]

I purchased some gorgeous redwood from @rockb recently which I just received. I had to give it a try and as I had a request for a mechanical pencil I thought this would be a good time.

I just replaced the standard "2 tube and midsection" of a slimline with one continuous 7mm tube.

This wood is absolutely stunning.

Finish is abranet to 600, Zona paper down to 1 micron then CA, micromesh, Zona, and Novus 3,2, and 1.

Thanks, I picked this up at my local Woodcraft. I think it is a discontinued model as I only see the gold version on their website and it is on clearance.
