Had another couple or orders for the short pencils.

But thought I would show you the difference between the standard pencil and the shortened version..:thinks:

Standard is in Bocote, and the short one is in spalted Beech..

Also a picture of the two shorties together..:waver:

Second one is in Corian...

Picture a little out of focus but they have been packaged and ready for the post so cant re-take them..:down:

I love them, so much nicer than the slimline ones as per the kit.

They look good. I have never done a pencil, had no call for them although I bought a few of the Timberbits conversions. Where are the original kits from?
