Here's the latest batch, three segmented oblique dip penholders, turned today. As always, constructive criticism welcome.

Didn't want to hijack Coll's post so started a new one. These blanks have been made for a couple months but didn't turn them until today. I have another dozen to finish. One is Hickory and the other Maple. Both with blue dyed poplar veneer.

Bought a few of these click pens from Rizheng a few years ago. The click mechanism is a real POS. They look nice, but I would'nt even think of selling one and have doubts about giving one away. Sooo.... I come across them today and figured I'll give 'em another try. Nope, more of a POS than...

Had a fair bit of snow during the night. I was desperate to get in the shed today but despite all the shovelling and hard work involved and after 25 m our Aud was too knackered to go the last 5 m. I was really dissapointed but after she made me a cuppa I calmed down and watched a film on TV. :wink:

Just a quick question regarding amalgam. Is this more akin to polyurethane or polyester resin? I got an amalgam blank from Vince at Turners Workshop and when I was drilling it today, the swarf seemed more like polyester to me. My concerns are really about how brittle amalgam is. :thinks:

Following the making fitting of the dust collector on the Tool Rest of the Vicmarc VL100 yesterday after the Melboune Cup David from Timberbits rang me and sent my new chuck engineered with my lathe spindle size integral and an adapter for another chuck. They arrived 9 am today. Some pics of...
