perfect

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

Turned another Faith, Hope and Love pen today. In my mind they are not perfect as I think I should have spent a bit more time polishing them. I am still learning.....:thumbs:

A perfect example of how media creates mass panic.

This is a lush and rich timber, perfect for pens!

My first pen. The first one I have posted pictures of anyway. It turned out OK its not perfect but it was a good learning curve..

Managed to get in the shed again, happy with the result using a fancy slimline from penkitzandbitz. Tried wet and dry then micro mesh and though not perfect I think it's better than my first attempt.

This week's Pen of the Week is chosen by Skin-Job and goes to the Mistral BP Olivewood by clement Karl said "For me, this pen represents what penturning is all about. The choice of the wood, the blank, the kit and the plating all come together in a perfect little Venn diagram, a discrete bubble...

I never would have guessed that my first ride of the year would be Feb 18th. 67 degrees today. Perfect temp for riding. Nice weather predicted through next Tue.

A new thing for me transferring pictures onto wood once I get it right then these will go off to various veteran groups as fundraisers but first I need to know what people think of the idea I know this one isn't perfect so I'm not looking for quality comments just comments on the concept as this...

Well I had noticed a few of our new members coming out with a few points that their life has been taken over and they now have the "BUG" So I thought as I have quite a bit of time currently not being able to do what I want to do I thought I would put pen to paper. So now I have put mine for...

Departed our place at 6am with 870 km in front of them today. Yesterday we were all spell bound at my Mates place, brad was cutting out on the Laser a Gattling Gun. When assembled it fires projectiles at an amazing rate. Then out country to Jim the Pro Turner who made us more than welcome. I...
