When I started turning a colleague of mine said he liked one of my pens, so I made him a couple. He is a very religious soul and does some amazing work with the less fortunate. He is a street Pastor most nights, making sure the homeless are safe. He puts up with so much abuse but still he continues to help others. Anyways he wanted to give a personal gift to some of his team of volunteers and asked if I would turn some pens. I ordered some Sirocco kits from Phil and I must say they are of a very high quality:thumbs:

I won't photograph each one individually but the one I have has some lovely wood grain. Pics aren't great but I'm happy with the pens. They are dressed with Bethlehem Olive wood and each one comes with a relevant certificate.

All finished with Phil Dart's method, melamine finish, which I am starting to get the hang of:thinks::thinks:

Kind regards

Bethlehem conjures up some beaut connotations and associations. These days in the hands of Arab people and changed circumstances by conflict.

Like your pens,certificates that keep the good memories rolling.
