I have been quite busy with other work and it has been a while since I turned anything. I got a request last week for three maple pens. Wow I had to remember the process it had been so long.

But I was able to take them from a piece of wood to pens in a night. These are going to Korea. I'll tell you more about them later.

It was nice to get back to turning. I really loved seeing those nice curls of Maple streaming off the tool.
