Ive often got offcuts of timber from my work only 300mm to 400mm long x 100mm x 50mm and usually cut them up and chuck them on the fire Ive seen a few posts on pen making and its not my thing but if anyone is local to Hounslow Twickenham area and likes pen making or can use these very small offcuts let me know as its a shame to waste timber . I only get charged to dump them thats why i chuck them on the fire
