Hello, yeah it's been a while......

[Ankrom Exotics]

We've been away from the IAP for some time now but we're happy to be back. We lost all of our penturning and blank making equipment to a fire back in 2015 but have since replaced most of it. I will hopefully be turning my first pen in almost three years some time this weekend and I'm looking forward to it. If it turns out OK I'll share a pic.

Congratulations on the re-build. You've got some catching up to do!
(It's about 4:15 AM in Iowa right now. You must be in the shop, right? Get to work!)

Welcome back.

Thanks for the warm re-welcome. The lyrics were from England Dan and John Ford Coley but I'll give you a half point because Dan Seals is half of the duo. We've been pretty busy in the shop for quite some time but most of our time has been taken up by working on knife handle materials.
