Thought I would try one of the Pratchet kits.

Hi all, my latest commission..... I was asked to do a 'green' fountain pen in the last throws to what passed as Christmas. I did a double dyed blank which I thought was stunning... But she wanted a hybrid!!... Well I ordered a couple from a certain turner turn caster and they 'melted' just...

Hi all, a little bit of restocking and I wanted the bigger camo blank, I couldn't find it anywhere, eventually tracked it down to Turners Warehouse in the US..... Thought I'd try the glow in the dark dragon scales too ordered on the 6th and came yesterday.... Not bad at all

Came across this thought it might be of interest How India'''s artisanal fountain pens are making their mark - BBC News

Not done much turning as making wooden models Now they are finished I can get back to turning a little more. This was just a case of having a play with a new tool for hollowing and at the same time I thought I would add some very subtle twists to the piece. Made with Yew and stands 6" and 3...

Hi guys, well you saw my stash of ply blanks I needed to turn one.... This has come out way darker than I thought it would, but that's the game we play with wood....

Seeing as the sun is shining and while there is still a bit of colour in the garden I thought I would start this thread. Anyone else?

Hi Derek, I saw this and thought of you!!:roflmao::roflmao: This should keep you occupied for about 5 minutes...

Hi all, I have always been happy with our suppliers, but I broke a few drill bits of late (machine marts finest Clarke range:whistling:) so after these guys were mentioned a while back I thought I would give them a try.... Obviously there not Dorma, but they weren't Dorma price either as you can...

Latest project.... These should be the correct way up........:praying: I thought Furlough was a place in Yorkshire :funny: Cheers Frederick Nope!!! upside down again.....I give up......:rolling:

Which is the best method of securing the brass filings, superglue or epoxy resin or another method I've not thought of yet?

Nothing really special but my first so thought I would post it. Made from Beach as I have a lot of this to practice with. I’ve already thought of what I would do differently regarding style etc.

And you thought duct tape was the answer well you are all wrong

Hi all I forgot I had joined this site but a turner some of you may know sent me a link so I thought I would post a couple of my pens. Any tips to improve wI'll be gratefully accepted.

Hi all, I bough some bowl blanks that were advertised on Ebay............mistake. I bought them some time ago and they have been kicking about the workshop for months so, as I have a day to myself, I thought I would turn a small bowl that I can finish today. I mounted the blank and started to...

Hi all, I have for some time contemplated engraving pens by laser. The price of a reasonable machine is, to say the least, astronomical and therefore well out of my reach. I have seen these Neje machines advertised and thought I would give it a go. This is the 1.5watt version. Having spent...

Hello, I’m not new on here, but I’ve been on holiday for a few years! Quite a few names I recognise, many I don’t and some names vanished. Holiday consisted of a trip to the divorce courts, moving house twice, more importantly moving workshops twice, the last time into a self built “shed” at...

Just thought I'd say hi hope you are all well I've not been in for a long while but hope to come in more in future all the best Frank.

I have been asked to make a couple of cartridge board up. How would you attach the cartridges to the back? I thought of epoxy but think it will get too messy and slow. Something like this.
