Popular Post don in brooklin on Posted January 18, 2019 Popular Post Report Posted January 18, 2019 Good Friend is retiring so I made a desk plaque and pen holder.. The wood is African Mahogany. That is not the same pen as I will give as the real pen is out to be engraved. Same kit and similar wood. lawson56, heppnerguy, JimErn and 8 others 11 Quote

Pens, bowls and wig stands. I like to kid at our club that I graduated to scrolling. It is a fun rivalry scrollers versus turners. amazingkevin, meflick and Phantom Scroller 2 1 Quote

Scrappile Posted January 20, 2019 Report Posted January 20, 2019 (edited) Very nice retirement gift. He is going to love that. There is a fun rivalry between turners and scrollers. I have a good friend that is a turner and an artist at it, he has taken me with him to the local turner club a few times. I use to turn also, pens and things. He introduces me as a scroll saw artist. Always makes me snicker. I always tell the turners that kid me about scrolling that every thing they make is round..... boring round. I can make things round and any other shape I want.... That shuts them up.... well for a little while anyway... Edited January 20, 2019 by Scrappile bobscroll 1 Quote
