Hello everyone!
Thankyou SO much for letting me join and pick your brains!
We live on a sheep station on the South Australian border.
So, covid is bad but the drought prior to that was true misery. So I started recycling stuff, making one of a kind items, all different, usually gifts, but I started having the staff here bringing fired bullet shells they'd found out in the paddock, asking me to make them something. So, now I make bullet pens! I am trying to use and recycle as much as I can. I haven't had a chance to turn much wood! But I think I will find a LOT of inspiration on here!
Thanks again!
Kirsty

Oh! Really! It would have to look amazing! I don't know that I could handle the smell!
We breed Poll Merinos at Mutooroo, so no big stunning horns, we do have goats though!
Thanks Alan!
