Since I retired, I have had a bit of time to play around in the shop, and was looking for something new to try. While looking through some fishing catalogs, I saw some decorative thread wrapping on a fishing rod, and thought that would look good on spindle turnings. 6 months later, I think I have worked out the basics of doing thils type of decoration, and here is the result on a Pentel type pencil I made for use in the shop. Let me know what you think of it.

That looks very well done. Maybe you have discovered a new method for decorating pens/pencils. Great job!

A very nice embellishment. That's a fine job on the wrapping.

You must have a pretty swanky shop, that's beautiful!

Be nice on a fly rod too. I'll bet some fly fishermen would be interested in a pencil like that. Well done.

That looks fantastic! You really captured the "flavor" of wrapped guides on fishing rods. I would like to have a pencil like that. Every time I picked it up at my "day job", I would be reminded of the fact that I'd rather be fishing.

PS - I use a Pentel P207 and/or P209 every single day. I'm one of those mid/old school engineers.
