Acacia Campagei (Gidgee)

[CjG78]

A lovely 2 tone piece of ringed gidgee. Absolutely beautiful timber to work with. Hard as heck and smells like sweet raspberries and dark chocolate.
(Well maybe I was just hungry!)
Fully sleeved with Nikko ebonite, gloss ca finish
M14 triple start threads. Jowo #6 nib

Another beaut from the Casey stable.
The timber certainly looks solid and would challenge your tools.
Lovely job.
