| | I entered my pen swap pen in the local Bungendore show and it took out first place in the 'any article made of wood' category  . I also took out second and third with a couple of other turned items that have appeared on the forums. Sorry folks, no pics until Donkee has it in his hands though
Just need an address to send it to now

Anyway I now have motivation to pull my finger out and get back on the lathe.

| | Recieved my box from Lazylathe this morning.
A well turned pen ( I'm thinking Cocobolo ) with accents, and a very nice selection of blanks, all I can say at the moment is "WOW"
Will post some pics in the other thread this afternoon when I get home. |  | | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
