Here's my first go with one of Dan's Zeta. Really lovely and easy to put together :thumbs:

Made from some scrappy Masur Birch I picked up. The quality of the wood is variable with some bits not showing as much figuring, but it was cheap scrap cuts.

Excuse the photography. I haven't got a decent camera at present so this is the best it gets on my phone camera :rolling:

Nothing wrong with the pen David, it looks good my friend .. To me the only fault is that the image is to small for my eyes .. :thumbs:

Right, I think I've managed to find out why my phone had save the pics at that size on Photobucket - all this technical stuff with phones goes over my head! Here's another try so you don't need a microscope.
