I'm Not Pregnant.:winking:. I have had two ultra sounds to prove it and no blood clots either.:tongue: Couple of weeks ago I got a real sharp pain in my leg, I thought it was a cramp, couple of days, later pain was getting worst, I couldn't sleep every time I moved my leg it woke me up, so tried...

Never having used it before I bought some Chestnut melamine finish for my pens. I have now tried it on a couple of "practice" turned pen blanks (not finished pens!) to get the method right. I have failed completely so far. No shine at all on a bubinga blank. I want to switch to melamine...

Can't bring myself to talk about a holiday event in December at this time of year, but I do have a gifts for #mas fair in a couple of weeks!:whistling: Pudding tree decs held by one of my helpers, as I haven't made the display for them yet!

Just a little bowl I turned out of Birch Ply a couple of months ago. 67mm across with an Elm rim.

Managed to turn a few pens in the last couple of days

Hi all... I have turned a couple of pens and decided to attempt to turn a bowl... a whole different set of potential problems.. but it went quite well I think for a beginner... and my wife is chuffed with it (and as we all know... That's what really matters!) From this to this to this...

It certainly is today its blowing 35 degrees and hard although its called the Vent d'Autan here . But at the week end I had a play with a couple of Phil's Mistrals and I thought I would show a couple: I have included a Jr gent just to show the relative sizes as well and the rollerball...

Had a visit today from Smoker (Steve) who brought me a goody bag full of stuff to help me on my way with my casting journey. I don't think that I need to bother about making any new moulds for awhile now ....Steve dropped off seven....(see pic) ! But when I do I now have a nice big sheet of HDPE...

It has not got a name but I have finished what I have been working on for the club competition. Now that it is done I can see a couple of faults, no time to correct them or even start again.

Not been too good health wise this week but managed a couple of hours of casting practise. Quite like the black and white swirly one.

Had a nice couple of hours catch up when two friends dropped in on Friday, one of them looks like Frankies' monster, any guesses? :wink::ciggrin: Here's a clue.

Apart from my lathe work i enjoy making end grain cutting boards , this is one i finished a couple of weeks ago for a customer

A couple of goblets made from cherry these are for the wedding table of my up and coming wedding

What can I use this for? A part from drilling holes that is. I have a big drill press and a mill inside. It was given to me and been sitting on my out side bench for the last couple of years, got rained on the last the last couple of time, the rain has never came that way before. I need the...

I had a call from Dave AKA Daveygee earlier in the week. Would I like to pop over for a couple of bits of wood, well I also wanted some pen kits so went over this afternoon. What should have taken 1/2hour tops ended up as three hours not including any travel time. So ended up with a couple of...

Hi I'm looking into buying a new bandsaw and have found out Charnwood have an open day on 20th August 10-4 free entry and free bbq :drool: Chestnut products are there along with a couple of woodturning clubs and a couple of people demostrating a few bits. May be of use to a few people in the...

I wanted to add a couple of no thrills pens to my website for those who didn't want to spend a huge amount of money buying a pen as a gift for someone, so needless to say I opted for some sierra kits. Here's a couple I made recently :)

These pens were a request from a couple of shooting enthusiasts. The kits are gunmetal and the blanks are called "amber crushed" and "amber".

Made these for a lovely couple next door to us hope they like them
