1. She was in the bathroom, putting on her makeup, under the watchful eyes of her young granddaughter, as she'd done many times before. After she applied her lipstick and started to leave, the little one said, "But Grandma, you forgot to kiss the toilet paper good-bye!" I will probably never put...

A painter by the name of Murphy, while not a brilliant scholar, was a gifted portrait artist. Over a short number of years, his fame grew and soon people from all over Ireland were coming to the town of Miltown Malbay, in County Clare, to get him to paint their likenesses. One day, a...

I have been asked to make a Calligraphy pen. They have asked if I can do it in shiny black. I was thinking of using black ebonite. I have never made a pen using ebonite what do you guys think. Is there a better option or will ebonite polish up to a shiny black. :thinks:

I made this a couple of weeks ago as a commission for a lady who wanted a pen for her husband, made out of wood from the Lake District, Keswick if possible :noway1: Well, living some 120 miles away, it wouldn't be worth the trip so I asked on here whether anyone could help. And guess what...
