Have turned nothing for many months, until yesterday. My missus says it's like waiting for a bus, nothing for ages then they all arrive together! :rolling:

Glued up a batch for later, mostly slimlines but a couple of JR gents and a sedona in that lot as well, also drilled and glued up a few bullets not shown.

Will post the other pens I turned separately but here's a sierra pencil in X cut wenge just melamine and left the grain open.

They are very nice Bob, a great collection. You've got some bits on your velvet bag, don't worry, We've all been there.

Thanks fellas much appreciate the comments.

* Sorry again about the photos especially to Neil who gifted me a light tent :goesred: It's hard being retired, never enough time to do things properly instead of just the kitchen bench using an iphone .:wink:

* Bill, that chestnut came from you marra! you gave it to me 18 months ago when I called in to see you :ciggrin: Thanks again, stunning bit if wood.
