I will try to get a close up later, but I have to pry it from his hands first!!

Chris (from Hawaii) send a couple blanks for my oldest to make a pen from, I posted up some photos before, but here is one of him turning that many may of missed, and the finished photo!

My son turning with a 1" skew... Gotta teach him right!

And here he is with his new pen, and a big old smile!
Thanks again Chris!

Your son's first pen and you only do him a cigar? Lee you should have at least done a Jr Emp. A real Dad would have let him do it on a Lotus![]

Nice job, it is especially nice when are kids get a kick out of the same things we do.

Nice Pen, Now you need Dad to find you your own lathe to refurbish.

Proud, proud moments! Get that photo framed, mounted, and hang it in the house.

Imagine in 25 years from now, your son saying: Dad, do you remember when i turned my first pen .....

Father and son lifetime memories !!

Very nice pen. Your son has a bit of a Leonard DiCaprio look. I like the organized look of your turning area too.

Working with your son like that should be in the gloat section, priceless memories![^]

Hi Lee, that is a great looking pen, your son can be proud he did a great job. You know where to get more Hawaiian wood, aloha.

Indeed I do! I can't wait to see what that Mango looks like, the wood looks amazing!

Of course, you know that now all my other boys are bugging me to help them make one!! Good grief, I will have to make Joshua and Matthew a pen and the next thing you know Isabelle will want one, in pink!! []

Mahalo!

Um, that boy us much more handsome than Leo, especially considering the sawdust and that awesom pen in his hand. Nice work, young man!
