A Joint Effort

[woodpens]

Hello everyone. It has been quite a while since I was active here. My priorities have been elsewhere for the better part of this year. Business is getting crazy again for the Christmas season, so I probably won't be real active again until January.

Anyway, the slimline pen below was made by my 12 year old daughter, Jennifer. It is made of Maple Burl and Purpleheart. She does a great job in the shop.

The black chrome cigar pen is made of Malachite Trustone. This is the best piece of this material I have turned. I love the way the swirls look.

Hi Jim---That Trustone's very sharp---nice work by your daughter too!! Good to see you post---I've been kind of a stranger here for a bit myself.

Hi Jim, good to see you still know how to turn a pen or two.[}] lol. Tell your daughter that her pen looks good and to keep up the great job. That trustone malachite sure looks good also. Something about malachite that really draws the eye. Good luck on keeping up thru the holidays.
