Hi all of you.
As to be my first tray I am satisfied too. Just consider - I have been working with wood all my life as a none expert. But my father had a wood factory and I did work there for 2 years.
I know very much basic wood work - but all things have to be the first time. As partly retired I had to find me some smaller things to do and I have been into pens for some times. Only straight forward things. This inlay stuff I have never looked at as I did not have some equipment for it.
The last years I have got me some more stuff and specially since last year I have been looking over the Internet a lot. And I do envy most of you getting all the nice wood. I have tried here to get some. But I have to by a lot if I want some!!
I have tried around but there is no place to find that could support me with small pieces of exotic wood. I am not complaining for this but where to look that I can buy for a fair price. That's what I look for when I am on my holiday too.
I am working now with a company in DE that I can send stuff to and then they can ship it to me together with other stuff. Hope that will be ok soon.
Hope to be posting more later as I want to make more of this and other things. I do have a site on Lumberjocks to for the ones want to look.

I do have most of the things on Lumberjocks and I have posted some pictures of some work and also some from my woorkshop.
Hope you like them and I will be looking forward to see more along the route while I am in the USA.
Sincerrely
