Hey all.
I'm trying to raise funds to get my motorbike back on the road so I can get out more this year.
I'm trading out some kit with a friend who is making me 8 of these in lew of payment.

They will be appx 7" long by 2" diameter with the brass screw on bottom and space for floats etc in the handle.
Don't know what exactly wood it will be yet but he said it will be good with a nice grain.
They will be going for £35 with royal mail recorded delivery.

1 may be already taken so 7 to go.
Will update with the wood type when I get a look at his stock.

Be aware they are not made yet and may take a week or two to complete.
So names on a list first come first served and I will contact you when they are ready.
Payment through bacs or paypal.
If you have a wood preference let me know and i will see if he can do it.

I can't wait to get mine. Wanted one for a long time.

Forgot to say the pics are for reference and the actual items may differ in shape etc. Will post pics when we have the first one made up.
Payment won't need to be made until your one is ready for sending.

Your friend must sell these on Ebay as i just missed out on one that sold in auction last week, it went for a total bargain at £14 + postage, i was gutted as at the time of it finishing i had my hands full and was distracted

The first pics were stolen off they guy in ebay but he is nothing to do with me.
The mate who is making mine is using much better wood and laminating them for the stripy patterns.

Ferret75 has first dibs and the Plain cherry one is a special for someone else.
So one of the 2 laminates is still available.
