Pens look really nice. I especially like the Walnut one.

I am new here with turning sooo, what is CA?

Nice idea on the tool storage. So for I have a huge collection of 3 tools. No lathe, but I have three chisels.

Do you really have you shop in a parking lot???

Great set up... like the way the tools fold out of the way...

Pens look great too!

"what is CA"

California silly... sheesh... newbies... }>

CA stands for Cyanoacrylate Adhesive ... or super glue :)

Nice pens and lathe stand!

BTW, you seem to have a surplus of sunshine where you live (or at least absence of snow). I'll swap you some pen blanks for it! :D

Thanks Guys.

I'm not sure if I have my shop in a parking lot or I park in my shop. ;)
I am lucky enough to have a 3 car garage for a shop, it's unfortunate that I have to share it with 3 cars. Yes, just about eveything is mobile, only thing not on wheels is my bench.

As for the temp today, I was comfortable in shorts and a t-shirt.

I almost hate to admit how addicted I am to turning pens. I almost freaked when my wife pulled the cap off my pencil and was going to use the eraser. I don't want them to look used, geesh.

Well after I finally finished my lathe stand and tool storage (that thread inspired me), I got around to making a few pens. First is Walnut with BLO and CA, second is maple/cherry(?) with CA, third is Zebra with BLO and CA, and fourth is Zebra with CA (to make a set for the pencil I made last week).
