Well done DJ

Nice way to start back into the pen turning.

I must get some of the different tickness of CA I have only been using the thin one no accelerator

You won't know youeself when you get the power on the shed

The pen is excellent and that gidgee is spectacular

Very nice indeed dj you have done the baron justice with your choice of timber.
Nice little stand you have there too.........

Who says this is my worst pen , don't worry to much about it Bernie I have done some that went straight into the scraps bin or turned the timber off the tube and started again

G'day DJ,
What a way to make a comeback! The wood is awesome, the finish is brilliant, and the pen kit sets it off well. Well done.

Cheers,

Rick

nice one DJ.

Is that Gidgee from Epay? Its awesome.

Thanks Rick

This comes from my own private stash that I got from Rarewoods before they shut down. Was able to go through the lot they got in before it was put out in the shop

Very few people get to see this stash of mine as it is hard enough to get without having to pay through the nose for it

Hey dj try some mr sheen on the shaft and bushes buff then redo i think that might help PS still coat with wax before use it's just mr sheen gets into the metal better (like amoral) try and see it works for me .

Lovely piece of work, I'm very impressed with the richness of the pen / finish!

Nice come back DJ...mmmmm love that gidgee...one of my favourite timbers for turning.

cheer

Look, mate. I make pens and I'll buy that from you. Name your price. Nicely done.

Apparently, I still got a long way to go. Every time I start to feel like I can turn a pen, you guys go and raise the bar.

Hello Dj, Well turned and finished, the kit suits the wood and the green is the envy on my face re the CA finish Amos

It's a puddytat pen. Don't ya think that the gidgee reminds one of cat fur?

"No Mr.Bond, i expect you to die," said the nasty man as he stroked his <insert ad> Dj's Marvellous Puddytat Pens <close>.

It's a nice puddytat pen. Bugger, i am sounding more and more like Trevor Chappell.
