    No kidding! And whatever the ailment might be that caused it, I think must have passed it on to John Bailey.

    I dunno. My guess is that the fuse fizzled with all that mayo and mustard at the wedding. Guess we'll have to wait for the hired help to clean up the mess.

    Well...................I don't know who to thank.............Again! But thanks for the supply of wood for pens and such. I guess this evening I'll go online and order pen making kits and necessary mandrels etc!

    A time delayed fuse on a bomb...........Who'da thought?

    Another new way to get into my pocketbook! I hope my marriage survives this turning thing! I've got nearly 38 years invested in the marriage......2 months into turning......

    Again..........Thank you!

    So much to learn, so little time.....

    A suggestion from someone who has turned a few pens ( also known as XXX)

    check out www.woodturningz.com
    and also the pen turning group on yahoo

    Thanks Again Chris! For the wood and the advice! I don't have the slightest idea how to turn and assemble a pen!

    Ken I just ordered from Woodturningz and he has the best prices I have found. Start with the slimline and work up from there. Go to Penn State Industries and they have a free pen turning DVD. Can't beat that. It is also pretty good. He takes you from start to finish of making a pen including putting it together.
