Finally getting right
I have just finished my first couple of pens,I solved my mandrel problem by letting the better half buy me a new Jet mini lathe at the Canberra WWS. I have still got to set it up properly but I couldn't help myself so I had a go and here are the results.
Thanks for looking
Paul

I can see you are like me .like some meat on the pens to show off the wood,I solved that by buying some comfort pen bands as seperates to allow the slimlines to be beefed up a bit
