All very, very nice John lots of sparkle there.

Beautiful pens John

You must spend all day making them for the markets. They would take a while to put together. Brilliant

Being retired is a definate advantage in this game hehe! but my time is my own, the bought blanks are quick and easy ,and effective ,gives me time for the more advanced stuff like pine cones and snakeskins etc . Takes me longer to do a slim or streamline than any of these single tube pens ,i always turn between centres on my small metal lathe which takes all the drama out of things and is very accurate ,I turn to size then finish on my woodfast whether wood bone or stone and acrylics,all the same to me hehe, the finishing is what can take the time ,ca is the longest, acrylics the quickest ,but it's all good fun ,and I get to meet lots of lovely people at the markets and some buy my pens .
Cheers ~ John (met Hazza last weekend at Neils place as the markets were washed out lots of oohing and ahhing over the stuff we shared hehe)

Three beauties John. I love those Phoenix pens that Ryan at WoodTurningz sell. I wonder if David could get onto those to carry in his stock ?.
