Going Away Gift

[Fedido]

I was asked to make a going away gift for one of the bosses. I was given a demilitarized 20 mm barrel and told have at it. The base is Padauk with a Yellow Heart inlay. The scrolling in the yellowheart are the details. A 20 mm projectile is mounted at the end and inlayed coins of the units that worked for him. Can’t tell, but there is a laser etching of an F-16 on the left corner. It is piled with Teak oil and no sealing. The receiver schooled me in that Germans done seal their woods. Under the barrel are two risers made of Oak. Hope you guys and gals enjoy it.

Thank you very much for all the kind replies. To be honest, he is high up the food change and hand selected me to do it. Slightly nervous, but the feedback I have received from the two within the unit is positive. These remarks really mean I nailed it. Thank you all.
