Dang, Laurie, I thought you had a "regular job!" With the rate you are turning out beautiful pens, you must have asked your "boss" for some time off. []

Laurie,

That looks great. I've got a Buffalo horn blank ready to go. Can you give me some tips on turning and polishing this material? Did you soak it in water before turning? What type chisels did you use (skew, scraper, gouge)? I hope mine will turn out as nice as yours.

Laurie,
I'll take 6 of those logs about the size of the one the pen is on and about 12" long. When can I expect them[]

Excellent work. Can't wait to see some with the cedar.
