Done these as a surprise prezzie for Mrs G this Christmas.

One is acrylic and the other is made from Padauk.

Mrs G loves cats so I have made her a cat twist pen from some acrylic I had from Axminster.

She is also suffering from arthritis in her hands that is getting progressively worse so I have also made her a Dawnguard pen, it seems ideal for arthritis sufferers.

Oh I Purchased the box from [MENTION=165]silver[/MENTION]

Both pens look good Gary. Shows how far you have come in the short time you have been turning pens.

I’m sure Mr G will really appreciate what you have done, she will no doubt give you some good boy tokens to be able to have even more workshop time.

Photos can be improved post camera if you are stuck.
