I'm In!

[Jim in Oakville]

Well, I have done a few craft shows over the years, but I was just accepted into my first juried show, it's November 5.


So out to the shop I went tonight, I turned 7 pens, this was the last one off the lathe...I love it when the blank tells me what hardware to use.

A green stabilized box elder burl on a Statesman kit.

Very nice job on that one. The wood has a great pattern to it. I love the kit you decided to use. Excellent job.
