Nice pens the burl came up really well I think I should of stuck with a darker timber in my bullet but still happy with the way it came out

Sorry I cann't do the organising this month as I will be away most of it. I have blanks cut and ready to go though

If we are on this month I am still in just will be a little late in getting them finished

Limited download out here so will just be able to look in evry now and then till the later part

I have the timber, but I can't cover the postage. Not this month, anyway.

As I'm still waiting for my table saw (and need it to chop into what I was hoping to use) I'll need to wait a bit longer to offer some WA delights. I could (and would be only to happy to) cover the postage angle for you Skew.

Terry B - I hope you did all the fabric embellishment on the backdrop in your photo - you can join my upper school Textiles class!!!! Nice pens, my antler is causing me to scratch my head a bit too. Shed has been too hot to persist for too long though!

Sorry, no, not my sewing-although my mum did teach me to do such a thing, I don't have the time or desire to bother. Just a cushion that was coveniently in good light when I took the photos.
I have an idea for my turn at the wood but I can't really get it ready for this month. How many sets of blanks do we need?
Can I do next month or later?

Here are my January pens - meant to post them last night, but my daughter rang to say one of our (WA) bush fires was heading straight for the town where she now lives (bearing down and 3 kms away)

.... what she failed to start the conversation with was the fact she had gone to Perth for the weekend ... phew .... so I sort of took my eye off the ball a bit ... Stuart, you have all this to look forward to!!! It seems as though the town might still be OK as the winds dropped and hundreds of trucks were brought in.

Thanks Toni for the chance to do something different (I might even have some work as a result of a gun club shooter seeing the bullet pen) what's your commission for intellectual property????

The bullet pen is with a multi colour brown/gold acrylic; burl on a carbetec pen kit and antler with red/black/white acrylic with the black enamel fen.

Nice pens. I like the bullet one a lot.

Poo, poo and bother it! Your burl pen looks almost exactly like mine, even to the same kit.

I was going to post a pic of it (already shown the antler/bullet one) but now it looks like it goes back to the lathe tomorrow.

Hey Skew, you're not feeling threatened are you??? ...and by a girl ......

.... I get the feeling you are a competitive soul

I'm quite sure yours will be way better than mine.

ROFL! Me? Competitive? No, not at all.

I like a bit of freindly competition but that's as far as it goes.

But I do try to make each pen unique & individual... which can be a right beggar when someone else thinks along the same lines.
