PITH for Lyonsacc Child

[Buzzzz4]

Katie was so excited to get started on this pen. The first blank she picked was a Brooks blank of blue and green. It was such a beautiful blank, but she has the luck I have with Jonathon's blanks. So we moved on to a Trustone blank and I showed he a bit of segmenting fun. We had a ton of fun together on this. And here is the result.

Eric,

I don't mean to criticize your picture taking skills, but the pen looks much nicer in person!

She had a great time making this with daddy. This is he third pen, and she did great with the turning. She was very insistent on doing as much as possible.

Nothing like sharing your passion with your daughter.
She has an exemplary taste choosing this blank.
What a pleasing pen.

What a great picture of her holding the pen, a wonderful story and a very pretty pen!

Thanks for sharing.

Tell her great job. I wish I could get my son to make one. He's 13 and is still afraid of getting near a spinning lathe.

wonderful! She looks so proud of herself. Great job Katie! Sorry to hear you had trouble with one of my blanks. Your dad knows if you need another all you gotta do is ask :wink:

Nice story,nice pen and wonderful smile. Both my sons are in college now but we have plans to turn a couple of pens during Christmas break.

That is one nice looking pen. And the look on her face tells you all you need to know if it was the right thing or not to include these wonderful kids.
