I have often seen pens that have been turned by turners mainly from the USA, using Trustone, this is expensive material and quite heavy so buying from abroad really does cost the earth. Searching the internet just before Christmas for Trustone i came across a site here in the UK, i emailed them asking if they were open for business as i was interested in buying a couple of blanks. The owner Peter, got back to me and he couldn't have been more helpful. I found the Trustone at a very reasonable price and now that i have them in my company they look stunning. Unfortunately i will not be turning them for while yet due to time and weather. The site i got them from is Trustone Blanks, i have no connection with the owner of this site but i know other UK penturners will appreciate the fact that they can now buy Trustone at a competitive rate and not have to pay the extra ££'s that it costs from buying from abroad.
These are the blanks i bought from Peter at trustone.org.uk
