    Here are a few pens I manage to get together today. I got more turned but the finishing is taking a toll on my hand so I will save the others for another day...

    Before they put a cast on my hand the other day I managed to get these done.
    I have two more pens ready for finish so I may be able to get those done. But after that...
    One-handed turning is not going to happen. Even when it's little stuff like Pens.

    With my hands feeling good and my shoulder ready to go back to work, I thought I'd turn a few projects.

    And this was a project I had been wanting to do for a long time. My skill level wasn't up to it a year ago. Then the surgeries kept me from trying. Anyway, Here is a bowl made from the same wood as the last bowl. From the tree in my front yard. This piece of wood had only been drying for one year so I hope it stays together.

    Live Edge Bowl...

    It has a few cracks and it's a bit thick but I'm hoping it may warp some during the final drying over the next few years and take on even more character.
