Anyone here read about this gentleman's ten year project ...

It may not be pen turning, but it sure tells a mighty story of one gentleman's persistence and dedication to his hobby and love for his Country.

My congratulations to him and anyone else that has this much ability to complete a much loved project. Heck, most of us can't wait for the CA to cure in 5 to 30 seconds! :biggrin:

Very inspiring, just the stuff to make one sit back, take pause, and be thankful for what we have. Four years ago this Thanksgiving I suffered a stroke. While in rehab I meet a gentleman that turned pens. After his stroke and rehab he went back to his penturning hobby. Being left with some paralsys he had to make significant modifications to his shop but he eventually got back to turning.

He was my inspiration to get into penturning, should I hate him or love him:confused::confused::biggrin:.
