This is made from a bit of the wood I bought yesterday, the Myrtle Burr. Bit disappointed with the photography but lifes too short to try and conquer that!

Neil,

Like two things your choice of timber, that kit. An aversion in use of so many kits they use the long skinny metal from the point end to the nib, this does not and in use more comfortable to hold over time taken to write a letter etc,
Share with you anxiety in taking pics and placing them on the forum my bad computers came to me later on from film cameras.

Kind regards Peter.
