.....and it's bloody difficult. Usually I have to make my own coffee when I'm busy but lately she's been sneaking into the workshop without warning coffee in hand and in other circumstances I'd be wondering what she's after but actually she's suspicious. "Whatcha up to?" she says looking at the...

Made thee two using 12mm corian very simple to make

For those interested these photos show how I make pens using purfling.

Nibs, .......... That's the very first time I have started a chat by saying nibs. I really like a fountain pen and hope to make a few this year, however I am slightly unsure how to identify a nib size. (OK make that I have no clue). To me the only difference between a #5 and a #6 are the...

hi all, i was thinking ( dangerous occupation for me ), i know there are some very nice pen kits available, but i feel somewhat of a cheat...as in, the kits are pre made, some blanks are pre made so all i do is make it all fit together, if you see what i mean...im probly not wording this very...

Crotch figure Lucombe Oak on Gunmetal Omegas, just need to make the box now as it's a commission.

Before Xmas I was asked to make 10 pens by a business man to give to his best customers. Well it seems his not so best customers got to see the pens and asked why they did not get one. So he has asked me to make another 15 pens. I am not sure that's what I had in mind when I went down this pen...

I made this in November and the article came out in December but I was so busy teaching I forgot to post it here. Thought you lot might like this! I was asked to make a Cannon ball bowl which intriqued me somewhat! Apparently it is a tradition in Sweden to make a Mustard sauce to go with a...

My wife saw these somewhere and asked me what I thought. I said I would make a few and she could give them away. Fun to make. I added an eyelet so they could be hung from a Christmas tree. 6 are made up 4 pcs, body, hat, hat topper and nose. The one on the far right was the last one I...

A couple years I co-wrote an article on making a jig to hold bowls and cut the hook to make a yarn bowl. It was a fun project and I enjoyed the challenge designing the jig. Feel free to add this to the tutorials section.

Hi all, Another Scott Walker label cast blank..... It will make some small boy happy at Christmas :wink::wink:

Finished the lorry today made from tulip wood and mahogany. This is just a toy for a young great grandson so it was a decision as to whether to make the body tip so I decided to have it fixed when he is a little older then I can make one with some working parts. I have used chestnut products...

Made these up for some orders today got to make 12 Apostles latter in the week

I was looking for something else and I found two of these kits, I had bought them when I first started to turn. Blimey I was shocked with what I found:duh: The original plan was to make one for dad and one for me. Well Dad doesn't need his any more guess, I will find a use for both of them...

If you make a slimline pen (for example) and put it up for sale on a website do you have to call it a "Slimline"? or can you call it anything you want?

Looks quite good. Not too difficult to make if you have the tools? https://www.pennstateind.com/library/PKMBLBX_INS.pdf

Not a pen, nor is it acrylic, so I am not sure it really belongs in this forum but anyway... A couple of years ago I made my first ever pen related thing. It was a pencil for use in my workshop. The trouble is I used a sandy coloured fake snake-skin blank, which is an excellent camouflage...

40 bits of timber and veneer make up this pattern.

I'd got fed up of cutting wood with my old plastic el cheapo mitre box, so I got a 14tpi Wood Hand Mitre Saw from Screwfix. After trying it out I thought 'Lets see if I can make a Celtic Knot, blank...this was the result, not perfect, but with more practice... I'd always assumed that one...
