Go for it, it's better that folks are offered a good choice.

Thanks for the Organoil tip, saves me messing up the beefwood you sent.

best regards,

It has darkened all that wonderful marbling effect.

Thanks for all the wonderful comments guys. Although I do them for fun & relaxation, they've inspired me to put one up on ebay & see what kind of reaction I get! If it doesn't mean cutting Rab's grass, I'd be honoured to make a sgian for a member or two.
