5 in x 2 in. Quarter sawn English oak, a very hard & dense blank to turn. After trying all my tools (rather aggressive in such a small piece) I used my Sorby micro modular toolset on it and I must say that they worked a treat - the tiny hollowing tool removes a fair amount of wood without...

With a bit of help I completed my first pen so I am hoping to start my next. I have a pale blank., however I have came across some thin cutting of walnut. Am I being to ambitious to cut my blank in half the long way and insert two or three pieces of th the walnut and superfluid them together in...

So this is my first attempt at a pen using a blank created from off-cuts in my workshop. Various woods layered and glued could be better but happy for a first attempt. Padster

I recently acquired a set of polishing mops to use on the lathe used them for the first time over the weekend to finish off a Polyester blank. It came up a treat. The blank was a nightmare to turn and sand. I lost two blanks due to blow ups. I bought four I have one left Out of the other three I...

First turnings since March 2020. The first two blanks were kindly donated by David Shepherdson so I don’t know what the timbers are. The next two blanks are xcut Oak. The next blank is cocobolo donated by Mike Wilson. The last blank is unknown timber.

Hi all, one from my weekend.... A Sirocco with one of Phils cast glitter blanks. If ever there was a perfect pairing of kit and blank, I think this would be very close

Pen No 4 this year. I received this pen blank in a swap on the PNPTA forum. It was plain pink on the outside and pink not being my favourite colour it spent a lot of years floating around in my blank storage. When I turned it, I was pleasantly surprised. Unfortunately I cant find the off cut to...

A custom order, I did one a while ago and just after it sold another customer came to purchase the same. So I was asked to make another.... Where did I get that blank?? Long story short, a quick order to Penn state industries, but don't only buy 1 blank 3 will give me a spare for co?k ups and 1...

AKA Pau Ferro,Bolivian Rosewood etc. My blank had inclusions in it, fun to turn. Peter.:goesred::goesred:

We have a great granddaughter here on occasions as we are look after her while her mum works. She wanted to make herself a pen a little surprised at the style she chose but I think it was the click lever idea that she liked most, she also rummaged through my pen blank draw and found this blank...

Hi Everyone Finally ready to start getting into the pen-making a bit more fully and I thought I'd better get an idea of the pros and cons of the various blank materials. I've got plenty of wood so can always try a variety of different species without worrying about wrecking them. So, grateful...

Much faster at these since using Phil's finishing technique. This took maybe 1.5hr from untouched blank to finished item. Spend too much time sanding though, need to get braver turning down to the bushes.

Well well well it's finished but it was kicking and screaming all the way to the end. It even had a repair before finial sanding so this pen is made in Elm Burr w/ Blue & Orange Resin I was going to turn in wood first but then Ash suggested I make my first pen in acrylic for the ease of making...

Yes I hope to post some pens soon I just been really busy trying to make a kit less pen. So far I've cocked up four or five blanks and on Friday I thought I had finished the pen when the blank snapped and I had to order another blank. Thanks to whcreations he posted a replacement as I had a...
