For years I've fooled you folks into thinking I was a competent penturner. Here's how I've pulled off this ruse. I get awesome blanks that practically turn themselves and then I take all the credit for it myself. Don't believe me. May I point your attention to exibits A through F.

So as you can see with the help of the afore mentioned members I have been able to fool you all into believing I knew what I was doing. The guilt kept eating at me though and I felt I had to come clean. So now you know.

Confession is good for the soul...

I do this also, and take credit for the good hardware/pen blank match up. Of course there is the proper squaring of the blanks and the turning, sanding and finishing that don't happen by themselves.

So, great eye for all those things you put together and create a fantastic product that looks so good. I am taking note of those members - those choices are awesome.
 
These blanks have just done a great job. I love them all. And also the camera did a great job on the photos. I hope you are watching and learning as this is happening.:smile:
 
Someone once gave me a rather humorous definition for 'expert': an 'ex' is a has Ben and a 'spurt'' is a drip under pressure :biggrin::wink::biggrin:
