Gold Tempest dressed in scrap plywood

[billyb_imp]

I had some scrap plywood given to me last week from the joiners shop at RAF Coningsby, thought I better make something up for the guy that gave me it, so this mornings effort is a Gold Tempest dressed in plywood, with A CA finish.

I rather like it, which is just as well as I have enough for another 50 of them, need some punters, sorry customers to like them now.

Nice pen.
I made a few bowls in plywood for Christmas gifts. They looked good but the dust was horrendous.

It is dusty stuff Ian, but with the extract on & only doing a pen its manageable

It's amazing how a ''lowly piece of plywood'' can
turn out to be a good looking pen!!
Nicely done, Billy!

That's very nice Billy, was it just ordinary plywood 18mm thick?

Yes just the ordinary stuff John although 24mm, unfortunately they can't afford the good stuff we used to call military ply

Another material to add to the list Billy. Great gift for your work mate.
