aka my better half, asked today, when I said I was going to the shed to make a pen, could she have a go.

And, with just a little help from me, here is the result.

Not bad for a first attempt eh?

Now I appreciate the can of worms I am opening here, especially hot on the heels of my 11 year old http://www.penturners.co.uk/off-topic-forum/5506-i-think-hes-natural.html and that I may be having to fight for time on the lathe in future, but on the plus side she swept up after herself, including all my mess from the last week and my shed has never looked so clean!

Nice pen, fella. You might find your tools all organised, in what at first is annoying and an affront, but begrudgingly actually very helpful.
