:smile:Hi, I am a charity woodturner, and pen maker from Colchester in England, I like making pens from out of the ordinary materials, like the snake skin ones i get from the USA, they work out quite expensive, especially if the are to give away for charity. I also use Bog Oak,and i have just recently managed to get hold of some Victory Oak, which is from HMS Victory, Lord Nelsons flagship,they sell bits of it from bits they take off of it as it is under going long term repair in dry dock in Portsmouth in England. All for now, more from me another time.:cool:

Thx Roger. I'm just a newbie. There are hundreds of people on here, with work, I can never hope to create.
 
It is always good when there are more people on this sight it sounds like you have access to some very unique combination of products good luck.
