Back home at last!

[OKLAHOMAN]

I know I had posted this pen back in April before it went on it's trip to be
immortalized as a feature article in a well know woodworking magazine.
Of course the blank was made by non other than our own Jeff Powell (workingforwood) who had asked me to turn the blank and take photos of each step of the turning process. I almost said no as I didn't want to be the one to blow up the blank but Jeff added that the finished pen would be mine to keep after, well I just had to have it.All praise should be directed to Jeff as all I did was turn his masterpiece. If Jeff wants to pipe in and tell what magazine and what edition I'll leave that to him. I present to you

Congrats on the turning, Roy. (and the publicity). Jeff did a great job with the blank but don't sell yourself short. Great fit and finish.

Jeff is a pretty crafty guy, and you did a fine job of turning it Roy.

That is a stunning pen and the whole reason why I subscribed to a certain magazine to see it.
Now I have to buy a scrollsaw to use these patterns with.

That is awesome! Damn, I just saw Jeff yesterday and he didnt offer me one of those blanks! I'll have to have a chat with that man.

so Jeff..what mag? what issue/month? Toot your horn, "cause I ain't a mind reader..

 

[Rollerbob]

Yep gotta love the craftmanship in the blank. Roy, the finished product is done quite nicely!

C'mon, what's the big secret? Tell us what magazine and issue so we can all rush to the newstand and get one.

 

[cnirenberg]

Fantastic looking pen. I can't wait to find out what magazine we can all find it in. Well done both of you.

Creative woodworks and crafts. What issue..who knows. I guess it to be 4 issues from now. Next issue out is something like July 25. That issue will be a must own too. I have 10 copies ordered for me. But I'm biased, since I am the feature artist of the month in that issue!

 

[Dalecamino]

Yep ! Beautiful pen and Beautiful work !

Way to go Roy and Jeff!
