Cherrywood & silver..

Post by Watermole+ »

I haven't posted anything 'constructive' for a while so, "here's one I made earlier!" for your perusal -and really hoping that the owner will not mind..?

Made last year with Polish theme throughout for a very special angler using very special materials, all imported from Poland.

The wood used is either black cherry or white cherry, nearly all the metalwork is silver or nickel-silver and with pearl winders.

Line drum is 3 7/8" diameter, 5/8" wide.

Beautiful Leszek.

Not sure what to say???
Thats not fair? Thats wrong!
No.... absolutely marvellous!!!
We can but drawl over that masterpiece.
Thanks for sharing that with us.

Mr B
The close season is an important and interesting time for the Angler who set out to catch big fish. It is a timely opportunity for him to make new tackle or renovate old. There are no end of jobs to do, apart from those horrible things called Gardens!
