    Photograph blanks......

    Hi Guys I have recently seen a few pens that have photographs in the blanks (wrapped around the tube and then cast I assume). Does anyone know who these are available from and what size the photo would need to be for a Sierra style tube? Cheers

    Stop it you dirty minded people. today I have been to the 2017 Woodfest event down here in kent and found some banksia nuts for sale at 3 for £10 and as can be seen quite a nice size. Axminster are also here with a small gazebo also selling them at £6.95 each and they where smaller.

    Light Tent

    Anyone use one for taking pictures of your pens or other items? I'm thinking of getting one but not sure what size would be best. I suppose they fold up pretty small so storage isn't a problem?
