My first 3 pens

[Garry Hirsch]

Pen #1 Red Corian Slimline Pen #2 Green Acrylic European and Pen #3 is Spalted Maple Slimline. These are the first three pens that I have turned and I'm sure enjoying this new hobby. Using the mirror tile in my homemade photo tent (cardboard box) seemed to work out OK

Nice start. That Spalted Maple is pretty sweet.

Looks like you done good! :tongue:

Very nice first pens! Congratulations on avoiding the temptation to "balloon" the barrels on the slims! Nothing screams "Newbie" like slims that look pregnant.

Nice first efforts! You'll do well.... as you are already on the correct path!

Welcome to the addiction.

Nice Job. I really like the green one. Nice shape to it.

You are on your way to making some nice stuff!!!

 

[seamus7227]

green is my favorite color, so I really like the Second pen (Euro) Nice work!

WOW, those are your 1ST 3? My 1st one I can't use, my 2nd one works, but calling it a beater would be too kind. My 3rd one is actually ok. Your off to a great start. I really like the green one.

Look great. Good start. Your photography isn't bad either.

Nice set of pens. My first were no way near as good as yours. Welcome to the addiction.

Great first turnings and welcome to the IAP forums and to pen turning!

Great job on all 3. They are certainly a lot better than my first 3. Nice job on the pics too.

I really like the red one. Don't know why, but it catches my attention.
