Since I sold a few of the mini pens at the first two fairs I decided to replace the stock. The first pic shows the mini twist type the other 2 are of the mini keychain kit that has a screw on cap. These are new to me, just got them last week. I really like that they turn and assemble very...

No real story here, other that I have noticed some LJ's starting to learn the joys of turning pens. I have also had a few questions on these in the past, so thought I would post a couple. These are great for the car folks and most folks know somebody that is a car nut. There fore there is a...

Been busy the past two weeks after our only Spring Craft Show. One of our regular customers asked if I could make a selection of Inertia Pens and Key Chain Screw drivers for them to use as gifts during the holidays. The Inertia Pens were recently put on Clearance at Woodcraft so I ran over to...

I have a customer that just loves these pens and has ordered a number of them in the past to give as gifts. When they were discounted I did not think I would get any more. But WC had them in their Clearance section online and I called the local store to see if they could order. The kit is...

These pens are keepsakes, going to family members. The resin (Alumilite) has stabilized (Cactus Juice) pine cones cast into it. My wife's parents chose a gravesite that has a large pine tree adjacent to it. The last time we visited their graves, they were covered with pine cones. My wife picked...

My son made a walnut pen and my daughter made a maple pen for their paternal grandfather. The kids were great students. I had heard that pens are a great way to learn on the lathe and it worked for us. I'm still learning myself. My mother asked if I could repair the handle to a screwdriver...

I saw a few of the rings that Franklad made and was blown away. I didn't think that you could make a ring out of wood that would stand up to any abuse at all. Of course my ring is a little thick but at this thickness it is very strong. I glued it up with tightbond 3 and finished it with general...

As I posted in my blog a few weeks ago, I finally made a pen on my own lathe with out additional assistance. Loved it even more then the others I have made in the past. The first pen was made out of a holly blank I had bought. The other two were made out of blanks of Ficus that I cut myself. You...
