End Of The Penning


Terry Dactyll

1,530 views

Another 10 hours has seen off the bulk of the pen work..... I only have to fiddle and tweak it now.... There were 3 1/2 whorls intact, so theres very little of the centre carved and I only have to repair a small section at the top that was sea worn, to make this an impressive display fossil.... Im still not 100% sure on ID yet, I will have to consult my good friend, but im pretty sure its from a chunk of the ammonite pavement....Ive got a couple of days hard polishing ....
