    Default Hot & Fresh

    Well, after being totally flogged at bowls this morning by an 87 year old Lady, I retreated to the shed to lick my wounds, and take my frustrations out on some innate lumps of wood to show them who's boss ! . Anyway, some more click style bullet pens in Cammo from GPW, and an Ancient Kauri Pine Jr Majestic, again from GPW. Usual 20 coates of thin CA then Micro Mech, + Brasso & Maguires Speed Glaze. .....Feel much better now
    I never forget anything I remember !!

    Bowls is a fickle game.
    Where as making pens is for a craftsman.
    Give up bowls and stick to pens mate.

    Beautiful work Steve the flogging must have brought the beat out of you in pen turning.

    Bowls must not be the same as I remember I would not have gone near a lathe after being to bowl.

    Very nice pens all of them. I have also found the ladies love those pinkies, have done a few on sierra majestics for sale and as presents and they are always really well received. The jr majestic is a very classy looking pen too, well done.

    Anything that involves a 87 year old lady and flogging I just leave completly alone!

    You got the CA finish perfect, as always.

    Very nice pens Pariss. I think I will get some Majestic Jnrs for a couple of really nice blanks I have been given. That kit does the blank justice.

    Try putting some CA on her bowling ball before she picks it up.
