Putting pen (or pencil) to paper is one thing. Crafting either
from scratch is another. Turners looking for professional guidance
and new ideas will embrace "Complete Guide to Turning Pens &
Pencils." This comprehensive book includes 15 projects (12 pens/3
pencils), ranging from basic to intermediate and advanced.
Attractive to turners is that many of the projects can be made in a
short time utilizing just a standing lathe or even a small,
portable model. In these pages, equipment and materials are clearly
presented, including types of mechanism kits available. Techniques
from blank preparation to sanding, polishing, and finishing are
explained in easy-to-follow step-by-step photographs. Also included
is a range of casing styles to suit all tastes, from fine timbers,
sustainable woods, and acrylics to polymer clay. An added bonus is
an extensive gallery of actual-size pens and pencils for
inspiration. Putting pen to paper never looked so good
