  Don't think I will be going near another pen for a while, order completed 100 Sierra pens.

Cheers Martin.

Martin,

long time no post!

I can see why now, you've been busy.  A job lot for the Masons I see, nothing like a bit of production turning to hone your skills.

And now I remember why I don't turn pens.

Good looking work though, hope the renumeration was worthwhile.
Oh Lord, Lead me not into temptation…

...Oh who am I kidding, follow me, I know a shortcut!

A good looking set. What are the woods used ?

I have learnt the first rule of woodturning.
The internal diameter should never exceed the external width.
Nor the internal depth, the external height.
Does that make me an expert now ?

Perhaps you should make a 'magic wand' to go with each one. They come with spell checkers. :)
