Hey Guys

Thanks for the feed back on the pens

Hey MKY

Thanks I had fun turning that one piece I am planning on doing some more, I had a little problem with the tube that is not glued moving while on the lathe an making the nip end out of round a little bit but I have made a little brass spacer the same size as the center band so it wont move but I have to say thanks for the tutorial maybe you should make it in to a PDF file so people can print it out just an idea

Great Pens Ian. I understand the shed time dilemma, think I Gage managed an hour in the last month. Did manage to get time to try my new grinder out so the chisels are sharp when I return. Hope you find some more time soon.
