For the last few years I have concentrated on the pen-making addiction , and nothing else, My good friend Neil (dai sensei) went on a wood hunt last monday , tuesday I helped him slice and dice ,He convinced me to try my hand at the pepper grinders ,so with some coaching and prodding I came up with this ,its a dry country wood called "Budgeroo ) sanded to about 1200 emery then polished with U-beaut glow, a friction polish ,I use the crush grinder mechanism with a manufactures 25 year guarantee ,Told they are as good as it gets hehe. Took me a days work all up so maybe not a lot of these will get made lol. One of the pictures shows a repaired borer hole towards the top of the body ,the overall height of this is about 12" .Cheers ~ John
