The judges all seem to be on the East coast. You could just jump in the ol VW and take the pens for judging!!

Anyone have a suggestion on how to keep an Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator from detonating while I try to make this pen?

I just finished what MIGHT be my casting entry. I'm SUPER happy with it but I wanna try to make another just to see if I can do it better.

What makes things worse is I think I broke my thumb earlier today :beat-up::doctor: and now I don't know if I can even make another. Going to the doc later today to know for sure. Right now I can't do anything with my right hand!

I'm out.
I'm still working on it, but no way I can make the deadline with how tricky this stuff is to work with.

HAh I just got back from the post office run. Im way ahead of schedule this time. Shoot I even made a pen in less than 2 days this time. IT barely took me 8 hours to make the pen last night, Finished up around Midnight. Final polish and inspection today and away it goes.

Scott

Yes, of course the pens will be returned to you! Well, unless there is one I REALLY LIKE! ;-)

This may have been asked in an earlier post, but I did not read the whole thread.
Just wondering why, if WOODTURNING DESIGN magazine, which caters to WOODTURNERS, does not have a class for straight WOODEN PENS.
I understand there is a segmenting class, and they can be entered into the open class, but the chances of a nice good old fashioned wooden pen has almost (and note I said almost) no chance of winning.
The chances are very very great that it will be a shiny bling pen.
So, once again, why no WOOD ONLY class in a WOODturning magazine.
Just my thoughts

Cuz in they crib it all about the bling.

I would have thought that they would have had a catagory that was just for a wood pen as well. Maybe next year, maybe not.

Well, Jerry, you know one judge (Kurt) and another is the WOODturning Design editor. So, I would think WOOD would have a reasonably good chance. Two out of three judges are "prone" to wood.
But if you DON'T enter, I can assure you, not only will you not WIN, you won't even PLACE!!!
