I can hardly believe that it has been 4 days since my last post! I guess that life just keeps on going while you are doing other things. I started a new job last week, well, it is a temporary job, but still and all it is really getting in the way of me being in the shop and working on pens.
On the other hand, I do like to eat, so I guess there is a certain balance that needs to be maintained. That plus we are getting ready for a yard sale, it doesn’t seem like I have had time to do anything at all the past week or so. I hope to get a pen finished this weekend and I’ll get it photographed at least. This one is made using one of my favorite woods for turning, Leopardwood. It has a really neat grain that will be spotted on part and scaly on others. It makes for a pretty good looking pen. Definitely something to look over when you take it out of your pocket.
I am also working on some ideas for some pen bodies that will have to be made up, always a fun and challenging process. Anyway, I better chop it off for now so I can get some things done.
Till next time -
