Hugh,
That's a good'n.
I've had a peek at your turnings -- you're work is quite fine!
Methinks we'll see lots of really wonderful pens coming off your lathe. [8D]
Thanks for the comments guys they realy are appreciated. I love the blank it is a black/ white ebony and it turns to a beutifull finish I will be self critical as I feel that I havnt quite got the CA finish right yet But I think I am getting there.
The photo realy doesnt do the wood justice.
Now back to my shed where a DI blank is waiting to turn into my second euro[][][]
