at a celtic knot. not a complete fail, worth trying to repair it, do you think...or put it down to experience.

I'd got fed up of cutting wood with my old plastic el cheapo mitre box, so I got a 14tpi Wood Hand Mitre Saw from Screwfix. After trying it out I thought 'Lets see if I can make a Celtic Knot, blank...this was the result, not perfect, but with more practice... I'd always assumed that one...

Sorry been absent for awhile, among other reasons workshop too cold in the evening. Anyway this weekend I’ve done my first Celtic knot as a practice, I want to make a matched pair for a friend getting married in April.

I have posted a couple of pens over the past two weeks that included Celtic knots in one form or another - both are slated for presentation of Modern Celtic Art that opens next week. In this very rural area in Upstate New York, there is a pocket of full and part-time working artists who work in...

This is another one being featured in the exhibit of Modern Celtic Art at the end of the month – this one sports Celtic knot-work in copper on nickel with nickel end leaves. The body is green acrylic with a Bock #5 nib.

I have had this one in the pipeline for a while. (I work on it between paying jobs!) The barrels are from a custom blank from Tim McKenzie (@mckenziepenworks), and I think it is my very favorite of his work to date. It’s subtle and classy…but the diamond sparkle takes over in natural light...
