These blanks were given to me by a mate. We are fortunate to have such a timber to tease OS turners with we get teased back with such burls of Oak, Yew and much more. IF this one does get sold your right it shall be at a higher price than normal for this kit. I have taken better photos to show the true quality of timber and kit these are on our blog with further details http://woolnwood.blogspot.com.au/2014/07/huon-pine-burl-pristina-fountain-pen.html |
