    Default September Pen Swap

    Hi every one
    you will be pleased to know that the timber is on its way.
    the pen blanks are rosewood and forest oak the inlay that i have sanded down to 2mm thick for you is jaccaranda.

    the theme is an inlay of a cross or any type of inlay your imagination can come up with I did not want to make the theme to hard :eek:

    so have some fun with this and see what your imagination can come up with :confused: :confused:

    CROSSES!? After all these problems with simple diamonds and now you want CROSSES!?? :eek:







    The sad thing is, I already have an idea and, of course, I know it's going to blow up in my face. This time, I'm gonna have a few practice runs...

    Thumbs up

    the theme is an inlay of a cross
    Note - that is cross not curse - there seemed to be a lot of cussin' going last time.

    Time for the thinking hat again

    Hi Andrew,

    Would you please give a little bit more of a description of the theme, please. My understanding of 'Inlay', is something that is set into the surface. I think you mean segmentation, but clarification would be nice. :confused:

    Dang! I was hoping people'd "forgotten" about Midges' pin...

    Now I have to come up with an original idea.

    Can it be as simple as a strip down the middle?

    Just got 'ome a few mins ago and had a couple of bundles wating for me. The swap blanks and Rowies' bundle of blanks. (Definitely good value there! :eek: Take him up on his offer if you can, folks! )

    For this early in the week, it has been a good day.
