Dave I'm incredibly impressed! Your work looks fantastic. Not to add more work, but for someone who is clueless about wood types, I hope you share more handles and very blatantly describe what they are all made off (so we can more easily select ourselves). When I scratch together some extra coin, I plan to PM you. Anita sure would look nice with some of your custom work...

Very impressive.

I have one in Olive that will be finished this evening.

I do other wood working as well. Finishing up some pen's right now. This one is stabilized buckeye burl with 7 coats of catalysed gloss finish on it. Looks better in person.

Dave, your work is fantastic. The depth seen in those pens is amazing. I am glad you are getting more experience with the Rancilio handles! I will need one soon.

Been out of town on business, I have a real day job. Put the last coat of finish on a pair of Kingwood handles and an East Indian Rosewood handle. The Indian Rosewood reminds me of black walnut in appearance but heavier and denser. Both are in gloss catalysed urethane.
