    Default 2011 Australia Day pen swap - Photographs

    Thought it might be a good idea to have a thread for the piccies of the works of art we receive.

    I'll start with this piccie:

    Ok it's not a Sawdust Maker original but you've gotta admit it's a classic.

    No probs with comments here either...
    like: "Nick you couldn't make one that classical in a quadrillian years"

    Photo's out of focus towards the rear... trying to hide something back there?
    It's only a mistake if you don't learn from it.

    I am very happy to say I have gotten the swap pen from Ian. It is a streamline in gunmetal. The wood is a nice looking white gum. He did a great job on it and I love it. I love the blanks he sent as well. Those will look great wrapped around a kit.

    Yes!! My swap pen from Dudley Young has arrived. It's a Sculpted Arbor pen wrapped in a beautiful Amboyna burl and some great blanks to go with it. I look forward to turning them.
    My apologies for the out of focus at the front but I think you'll still be able to work out it's a lovely pen.

    I received my parcel from Larry (Idubia) today.

    One is a Starry Sunset Acrylic Aero PW, the other a Patchwork Pencil along with same extra leads. Larry has done a great job turning both of them. The parcel also contained 6 pen blanks that I am sure I will put to good use.

    I hope the picture quality is ok, I am a better woodturner than photographer.
