This is a follow on from a request I made here few months ago to have some engraving done. Gareth Ritter came through and did the engraving. Very impressed indeed. The pens have a Bock #5 nib and the wood is Bethlehem Olive - as it says on the postmark on the box from Israel. Due for delivery...

For me!...... After my escapades of having difficulty of turning pens due to numbness in the hands and not being able to feel the transitions between bushes and blank, so I had a chat with our Bill Mooney. Now he is one to inspire many due to his limited abilities, but he gave me some great...

Hi - I'm a new member and I've been pen turning for 6mths. Does anyone have use for the resin shavings from a few different coloured blanks. I don't intend to make my own blanks due to limited space, but if anyone can make use of my shavings let me know. Maybe I can swap them for a blank or two.

Hi all, Well, I have my pressure pot and a compressor (which is on its last legs though) and excited about starting to cast acrylics. I must have watched every youtube video on the subject of plastics but I am still not sure upon what brand to buy. I know the USA use Aluminite a lot but would...

This evening was our club meeting but due to the last Saturday one being cancelled due to the weather tonight we had our presentation. Not thinking that I would be anywhere near having a trophy due to the fact I entered very little last year. Anyway the thing was that I did manage to get a...

I saw the physio yesterday & was recommended to have a joint replacement in my right shoulder as the pain is very severe & is curtailing my arm movement due to severe arthritis. Due to my lack of sight most things have to be lifted & held to within an inch of my eyes to use my magnifier to read...

Sorry not been on much due to illness in the family now I have a chest inflection :sob: so will not be turning much very soon. When I get better I will post what I have been doing.

Had a commision for a pair of Mistrals , a fountain and biro. Both dressed in "Emerald Dream" blanks from Sawes (Scott Walker). Great service from Scott in getting another blank to me quickly after I over-tightend the chuck and cracked it while setting up to drill!!!!! Really appreciated as...

Having decided we no longer need such a large bungalow due to lack of children we have decided to downsize, I now have to sort out the things I am going to sell. Due to lack of use some of the smaller items have gone rusty, not wanting to use traditional methods I found a product on the internet...
