life

Well it seems as though my new hobby of 3D printing is not as easy as I thought. Printed this goose, It looks to me as though it is wrong, Can't for the life of me think what it is :funny:

There was a bit of movement with both of these when clamping that I didnt notice at the time. Such is life.

but at least this one lines up lol sorry ive not been about much...life and all that :rolling:

Made these pens as fundraisers for the BHF to celebrate the ten years of life they gave me

A little Yew pot 3 3/4" x 2" with Brass inlay which is nice and shiny in real life. Finished in Hard Wax Oil.

Only 5 days to go! :banana::banana::banana: Seasons Greetings to you and your loved ones, I hope your stockings are filled with with lots of lovely toys and I pray that next year will be better and life safer. Take Care:winking: Thanks to all who run and contribute to this site.:thumbs:

I made this pen to be auctioned for a very ill little girl to help improve her quality of life so far we have raise £630...

Hi all I thought I would have a go at making some acrylic pen blanks. I have not tried decorating tubes before and all went well until sanding. I think some water mades its way in at the end of the tube causing some discolouration. I have another blank but this time I have poured some thin CA...

A lovely kit. The blank looks better in real life. Mike

Just seen this today in the life centre in Newcastle upon Tyne Kevin :banana:

A bit agree this morning I bought an trend Airsheild battery powered mask last Aug for £125 new unused boxed on E-bay, as I have been unwell only started to use it last week it works brilliant. So I thought I would get some new filters as I do not know how old the ones fitted are and reading the...

Hi All, Marco to my friends. Born and bred in Scotland, working life in London, retirement in France. After a life in IT, finally came to realise what my dad (an excellent cabinet maker and all round craftsman) saw in wood (no pun intended), and took up woodturning. Thoroughly enjoying it...

I like to make unnecessary stuff sometimes, pens are not the only thing in life after all. So I made a Chinese ball (that is a sphere in a sphere in a sphere and so on, turned in a single piece of wood) and added some more classical (?) turning around. The idea is to make the spectator first...

Hi all, This is another resin that has been mentioned in another thread, so I decided to give it a go and I think it is great. The Polytek that I have been using is good but the very short pot life is not good. Opti cast has a 11 minute pot life which is great. It also finishes well going...

Morning chaps, Bought the blanks from Dave Hilton, the pens had only been made for barely 24 hours before they sold! The Indian rosewood looks better in real life, the photographs were a rush job taken outside! But the olive is stunning! Comments please. Thanks, Chriscb

A piece of my life! The art deco school was demolished in the early eighties but the old school entrance remains!

DElving into my blank room using up the the kits I have collected. Then this one arrived as a prize a Tempest Kit. I have been looking at pics using this kit for a while then composing my approach, as the beautiful timber yielded I was not prepared to reduce it to Slimline sizes to accommodate...

Managed to "dress" a TM Alpha kit today in rollerball form. This was my first attempt at one, not too happy tbh, as there are still tiny scratches on it, I have ordered new micro pads as I think my ones are getting near the end of their life.

Hi, as most will know... buying shellac in the uk is next to impossible, although we can make it from the flakes it has a shelf life, even the flakes have a shelf life if kept dry and in the fridge, 6 months is too short for me as id probably only use the polish once every few months... I was...
