Been Awhile

[Cmiles1985]

I haven't been in my shop in quite some time, but work weather and life have finally cooperated enough to let me play a little!
I've got a couple of pens waiting to be turned (waiting on both me and the delivery of some new CA that's actually liquid). I got to play around and make myself a new ring (my old one was getting too loose), a new candy bowl for my desk and a couple of other items. I forgot how relaxing shop time is. I also forgot how much I've missed this community!

Nice looking rings. What is that second item? Also, if you fill that candy bowl often enough your old ring will probably fit again!

The second item may or may not be a smoking device. Good point on the candy bowl and ring!

Nice work! I know how you feel about getting back to shop. We made a major move and all my tools are in storage for awhile. What did you use for the blue ring? I like that!

Thank You! The material is called Juma; it reminds me a lot of Alumilite when it comes to turning/machining. @ed4copies caries it at Exotic Blanks
