Education is important, but wood turning is importanter.

Probably this, it was bought by a pastor in the States a few years ago as a communion cup and has been used ever since. He now orders a new one every time he has a wedding to commemorate the weddings he does and gives it to the couple.

I suppose this is a bit of a glib answer, but the handle of my !/2" Ashley Isles Spindle Roughing Gouge. I bought it unhandled.

A chunky cherry bowl, which was cored out of some really big blocks (16" square by 6" thick), and was meant for sale, but my wife claimed it and now it gets used every day for fruit.

Not a very good pen as it was one of the first when I was a novice turner, but here it is.
