Son's First Pen

[PTownSubbie]

Well, I asked my son today if he would like to make himself a pen. Surprisingly he said Yes! He hasn't really shown interest in the woodworking stuff.

So, we went and picked out his blank. He picked a blank I poured yesterday. It is Antique Silver and 24 Kt Gold Mica powders using some new techniques of casting for me. I asked him what style of kit he would like. A pen, rollerball or capped pen. He asked if I had a click pen. I remembered I had a click pen purchased a while ago from CSUSA.

He turned and finished it all with me just there to help and guide him along.

Don't think he did too bad!!

He knocked it out. It's definitely worthy.

Cool! I remember you telling me he wasn't into the turning thing. Maybe the bug will bite and yall can have some quality time in the shop now. btw...NICE pour :highfive:, wonder where you found that new technique :wink:

I'm anxious to see how those "special" blanks you made while here will look once turned. I made one of mine already...gotta keep up now :biggrin:
