As in the intro thread - a friend showed me how to make pens which has led to an order for kit going in and a new part to my hobby for the future...
This is the first pen I did (Sapele) - seems to work as a pen! :)

That's very nice as a first or tenth pen... Well done.
I always say, keep your first one, in a years time and 50 pens later you will be able to see how you have progressed and realise how expensive that pen actually was

A great first pen Alasdair. Hang on to it - it'll be interesting for you to be able to compare it to your 50th pen (in a fortnight's time or so):bwink:

Well I believe that there might be a parcel from you arriving today with some essential supplies ;)
So may not be too long...
