JP, I have been busier than ussual with the "W" thing. But remember.
I still see all, [] Especially the one's that bad mouth me []

Like I tell my kids....You may get away with it....
But the old man allways finds out the truth, sooner or later []

That is why I never wrote a paper on the subject, if I had, the only
difference between my article and Jay's would have been
my name & my photos. []

I will leave you with a little parable................

There were six Kings bearing gifts...
2 woodworkers, 2 chefs & 2 pen makers...
They all brought their gifts to King Tony..
The first woodworker brought his box made of press board,
The other woodworker's box was made of fine burls...
The one chef presented his meal made a fresh road kill...
While the other had killed the finest fatted calf for his...
As for the penmakers..the one presented his resin pen made from
old paint drippings and cheap dyes..
while the other used fine powder dyes, found in the instructions []

So the morral of the story goes.....you get out what you put in []

I am definitely going to have to try this. I was wondering where some of the colors were coming from.

Am I dreaming or did a post vanish []

I never did thank Jay for the wonderfull instructions.
Don't know who he is, or where he hangs out.
But thanks Jay [] for a great article []

Jay hangs at the Yahoo group and the PenMakersGuild on Yahoo. He is a good friend of mine and he gave me permission to place these articles here. They are both in the Yahoo Penturners files areas. Go to his guild gallery at http://www.turtlewoodworks.com and look at some of his pens. And while there look at some of the other guild member's pens. Maybe even consider applying.
Do a good turn daily!
