Excellent video Lee, I can't get over how clean your lathe is? :goesred:

I know mine isn't that old but it's got quite a bit of splatter and glue marks over the spinning bit..:thinks:

I won't say anything about the gloves bit, seems as enough has got on the BW as it is.:tongue:

As for methods of pen making, we are all different and do specifics their own way. That's what makes us all different, did I learn anything? Yes, not to wear gloves :face: and to wrap my lathe in cotton wool.:face:

Seriously, great video and nice to see how others turn their pens.

I spend more time cleaning everything than actually getting any proper work done :)

Clean is good for videos well worth the effort loved the cutaways there is no need for exhaustive talking over turning or showing when you use headings making this such a high quality production. Thank you again mate.
