I love this wood from SS QUEEN OF BERMUDA. Glen:love_it:

I have been in the process of downsizing my workshop for a house move (Smaller workshop) Found this kit today and decided to have some fun. A Pewter Twist action pen with Love, Faith, Hope across centre band & Fleur de lys cap and clip. Made using a green acrylic body from the Conway Stewart Range.

Spalted Maple finished with CA. I really enjoy the spalting process. I love being able save unusable wood.

Bought a few long time ago in America,this wood is hard and full of Spalting with colour all through it. As the turning peeled off you could see the fine lines all the way down. Three sharpenings almost unheard of for me in this pen. Love it. Peter.

Last February I had to go to Denver to see mum, so I visited a turner / caster while I was there. Robert Franklin, if you ever get the chance to watch his live shows on Facebook you should, great skills and lot's of knowledge. We made 8 or so hybrid blanks during my visit, Bob uses Alumilite...

Hi All and thanks for letting me join the forum. I have been turning for nearly a year and pen turning for about 4 weeks now. I am addicted. practicing with slimline and streamline kits with both wood and acrylic. I love the ease of the wooden pens but also love the finish with acrylic. Hoping...

I just love the Harrogate show, meeting up with old friends and new. I'll be there on the Saturday. Anyone else going?

Couldn't tell you what it is but it made quite a nice pen. I love the natural look with all the holes and divots still there.

Love this pen turning guys. Here are a few i made. Keith

Hi I’m new to all of this so help and advise will be appreciated. I recently attended a show that allowed me to turn a pen and even with the time restraints really enjoyed it. I’d love some help on what would be an ideal mandrel to buy for a 2MT, so many reviews it’s hard to decide which would...

Maple & Zircote streamline. Sorry its Maple again but I love using it. Pat

If you wonder why I have not produced a lot for a while the simple answer is because I am part way through building this model as many know this is my other woodworking love as well as earns me a little extra to buy tools.

Hi guys...my latest from Toni Ransfield in the US.....Both kit and blanks. She had also cast the clay in liquid Diamonds ( i think) which made for easier finishing....as some know i love these but i really love these ones complete with bats too

Deffo on a roll today. Again turned these a lot faster than I previously have, made such a difference. Both finished with melamine which I love. First Ben is bog oak and second one is zebrano. I know pics aren't the best but have sorted my dslr camera out so am going to retake some pics

Picked out a new New Guinea Spider Shell had fun with other objects. Love this New Zealand Pau Shell. Peter.

Not posted for a while so I thought I would throw one in. Got to say I love the spalting in this Cherry, finished in Melamine lacquer.
