Was that a stabilized cone? I like the video - short, sweet and to the point....

No. Not stabilized. I stabilized mid-turning with glue but otherwise I went out, found a pine cone that some squirrels had eaten the pods off of and turned it from there.
I've made a few. That's how it's done. No one can guess what it is and is amazed when told. Great video.

Your pine cone pen turned out tight. Nice work.

Thanks. Look for pine cones that already have the seed pods eaten off by squirrels or some such rodent as that will expose the core fully.

This is a good video, and is a great idea for showing potential customers how its done. You get a sense of how its made without seeing every single step in nauseating detail. My brother made a pine cone pen one time, and it turned out beautifully. We then gathered up some of the pine cones last fall, but they were all quite wet, so we left them to dry over the winter. We definitely intend to make a few more. The results are quite unique.
Good video. From what I can see in the video it looks to me as if you where trying to explain a couple of things to us. But with the music going so loud you can't hear what you are trying to say. But other than that it was good

Actually I realized it was better without the words so just muted the words. But that is a good point and next time I'll make sure to get that fixed!

Again, just to remind everyone, just find the pine cones that have already had the seed pods eaten off by squirrels. It is MUCH easier to use those than trying to cut off the pods yourself.
