Very nice
Glen you ever make a cedar pen?
Also do you buy pre drilled blanks , or do you cut and drill your own?
I ask cause I may have some wood for ya. :biggrin:
Nice job bud :yoyo:
When does the acrylic orange model come out :biggrin:
really nice lookin pens :congrats:
HaMeR, buddy...those are some beautiful pens!!! Outstanding job!
Thanks guys!! :biggrin:
Bill-- Same stuff!! I bought a stick of it. :eyebrow:
Al-- I haven't worked with cedar yet. But I am going to eventually try it. I do buy some pre-drilled blanks from time to time. Depends on the situation. But I would say I drill 97% of my blanks. I do have some bigger boards that I have to cut down & thats not a problem. The Craftsman makes short work outta that process. :wink: I THINK Bill, vvarmitr & myself will be in Parkersburg this weekend over at the Woodcrafters store. If so I'll holler at the Frogman & maybe we can have dinner or lunch. :biggrin:
Jimbo-- I've scrapped the orange acrylic idea. Every time I pull the blanks off the lathe I think "This is the one!!" :eyebrow: But then I press it together & the acrylic cracks every time. :doh2: No matter how big I make it. But I do have another idea tho. I think you might like it. :eyebrow:
LORDDAL-- Thank You. :biggrin: Glad you like them. :yoyo:
YoteCoaxer-- Thank You as well. I certainly try to uphold the standards you call makers have set. :biggrin:
Lookin good as usual ! :congrats:
Sounds good HaMer, I would like that. :wink:
Good lookin stuff Glen. :wink:

Thanks Joe. How's the keepers coming along? :eyebrow:
