Nice pens

Well, all or nothing, these are the first items I have ever turned...

2 yew and 1 Olive wood.

Olivewood is truly bad, as its two halves....(a lemon pen?) but I like the yews

Very nice I am new to this but hope my first will be nearly as good as these I will get my
pen mandrel tonight so try it out soon. And will let you all know how it turned out.

For the 1st efforts they are very good soon you will be reshaping them to your own style and mickmc looking forward to seeing your first attempts and dont be scared to ask questions if you get stuck.
