My Grandsons First Sieraa

[Vic Perrin]

My 14 year old Grandson has recently got into woodturning and when he was visiting today he asked me if he could make a pen.

I supervised him but he done everything himself from choosing and drilling the blank to finishing and assembly.

I wish my photo was as nice as the pen

Watch out Vic he will be soon saying "Move over grandad and watch an expert"

Tell him he has done a great job

Great effort, well turned and finished.
I bet he was chuffed to bits.
Hope you let him keep the pen Vic

Wait 'til he shows his mates - he'll end up with more orders for them than Grandad 'cos they'll all want 1

Great pen for a first attempt. Looks like he's definitely inherited your touch with wood Vic

Clever Lad, Nice job he did too!

He has done a great job with this pen Vic, tell him to keep it safe for the next 50 years, so he can show it off on whatever it is that will be about then . Something like the supersonic internet ..
