Ultra Cigar in Camphor Laurel

[Rick_G]

Got this blank from MackC and figured it would look good on the ultra cigar. Cross cut camphor laurel. Makes a nice pen but I guess it's considered a weed in Queensland and a threat to some wildlife. http://www.camphorlaurel.com/
Smells like the eucalyptus oil we used to put in our vacuum cleaner back in the 60's when cutting and turning it.

Why did you put eucalyptus oil in the vacuum when you were cutting and turing?

Very nice looking pen. I think in some cases, a busy grain pattern would clash with the ultra, but in this case it works very well.
