    Default Received my pen from Josquiggley

    Received my pen from Joanne, beautiful Roman Harvest FP in Flamed Mackay Cedar, beautifully turned and finished, plus a huge box of blanks, overwhelmed by such generosity.

    I've been remiss in my duties and haven't posted pics of the pen and blanks I received a couple of weeks ago from SloLouie. The pen is Aligator Jaw with resin on what we'd call a Baron fountain pen. Great pen and blanks

    It's only a mistake if you don't learn from it.

    Very nice Haul,
    What type of timber is the blank in the middle on the group photo, it kinda has a plywood look to it?

    I'm not really sure what it is actually. It looks a bit like a stabilised bamboo laminate but I might need to find out

    Here are my pen swap pens. First up was Aussiepens, great pen, already taken for a test drive. Also some nice blanks to play with.

    The other pen is a Cigar from Wraith. Nice looking pen with a great selection of blanks. Question is which one to use first.059.jpg061.jpg062.jpg067.jpg
    Why is my work bench never tidy?

    Cheers all

    WOW......What beautiful work by all of you.

    We are very close to sending out our 5 packages. However, after looking at the work already sent, All we can hope for is great photographers at the other end.

    This is our first swap and we hope that everyone will take that into account with the pens they recieve.

    Wayne & Thomas.
