First pens

[Djones02021985]

First few pens I've turned. Very happy with them and can't wait to do more. Olive wood, gunmetal components.

Already been planning all the kits I want to buy. Made myself pen press attachments for my lathe too.

Great start on the pens, and I have made/used similar pen press jigs for my drill press - you will get lots of use out of them. I've just recently re-turned the jigs out of delrin after wearing out the first set turned of wood.

Very nice.

I finished them with teak oil and polyurethane spray.

Not on those ones. They were written on with a sharpie fine liner then poly sprayed over the top.
