    Got to practice today..

    I got to practice making some pens this afternoon. I thought I would screw up a lot but I only screwed up one set of blocks ( and that was cutting them ) I will probably have pens running out of my ears now. This was some scrap I usually throw away.

    Very Nice Ken! The only problem is now you are hooked and they are addictive. You will have pens every where.

    Great Job

      Told you, Ken! Now you have to decide what you're going to give up so you can buy all the pen making stuff.
      The fit and finish on all of them looks good, especially the purpleheart, it's the devil to turn.

          Very nice days work Ken.
          You are not realy hooked untill you start sneaking out to the shop to turn a couple after the wife goes to bed.

              neat looking designs, you wont even want to throw out the scraps from making pens either. I wind up using them to turn center rings.
