I'm getting famous

In the blog world this must be fame, or at the least the beginning of fame.

My humble blog has been linked by a brilliant young art student, with literary obsessions.

I'll have to watch my sppeling and garammer if real book people are going to read it.

Not that it matters, me and my lathe will keep working away, and just occasionally launch a few random thoughts into the blogosphere.

We've been busy, me and my lathe, and 3 darts, marked with country of origin, will be post-hasting in the direction of the Athens of the South tomorrow.

All the best to all.

Pens and chess pieces

Practice spindles for making a chess set, for my too smart by half son. I taught him how the play chess, taught him everything I know ( which isn't much), and now I can't win a game. So I'm no longer interested in playing chess, only in turning chess pieces.


Pens: interesting though it'll get a bit repetive unless I get creative, which I might. Much easier than it looks, once you've got the gear. And you have to purchase the "works" of the pen. the only wood-turning is the barrel. A good turner could easily make a couple of pens in an hour, including putting them together. I take about an hour per pen at the moment.
