A spalted Elm (Chinese Elm?) bowl with bark inclusion through from side to side. A couple pens of black walnut with a spalted base.

Projects: Pen: cross grain turned with bark inclusion, tricky. Cedar natural edged small bowl. Very spalted Elm vase, end grain turned. The vase was a cut off. I plan a couple cross grain projects from the Spalted wood. Should be interesting. The pen warped some because there was moisture in the bark but not enough to prevent function.

Three vessels made with one small cedar crotch and a piece of Burr Oak with imperfections kept.

I spoke to a nice Lady during Junk Jaunt this past weekend and she asked if I could make her a large spoon for a deep kettle. She was going to text the number on my business card with contact info but I haven't heard from her yet. The spoon is done. It is made of Mulberry and is 19 3/4 inches long. If you see this, contact me and we'll make arrangements for you.

Expanding the "poorman's" pen series: No glitz, no glam, no polished chrome or expensive kits, just hardwood from Nebraska, Slippery Elm in this case. These use the innards of Bic Clic pens.

Just recently had an appendectomy so I'm out of the studio for a bit: time for a bit of reflection... I've been reading Finding the Mother Tree by Dr. Suzzane Simard. Great read if you are a wood worker interested in more than just the end product off the lathe. We recently had significant damage to cherished Ash and Hackberry trees. One might say,"no particular loss" But these are trees that have grown with us since we have lived here. They have sheltered and attracted birds to our feeders and signal the coming and passing of seasons. So, yes, I feel the loss. Walking through the yard, there are old dead branches down as well and these are seasoned ready to turn into something small to commemorate the tree. Most might haul it off to the tree dump or burn pile. I say, make a desk pen and base for someone to use. (Other set is of Mulberry and Oak combined in both base and pen.)

Working on the affordable pen idea for the upcoming Junk Jaunt in September. These are designed as desk sets, pen and matching base. A steel washer is inlayed in the bottom of the base for stability.

With the September Junk Jaunt event approaching, I've been making pencil cups and wood pens to include with them. This cup is laminated Oak colored with cobalt acetate. I like the effect on oak, makes a sort of patina look. The top portion is a bit of Elm that does not react with the cobalt acetate.

I live in a frugal. bargain oriented market so I'm always looking for ways to have fun on the lathe with small ticket items. Enter, the simple pen, made of oak, using the standard Bic stick pen parts and a simple friction cap. It can be included with a pencil cup purchase or sold for a song. Its a fun lathe project using scrap that might otherwise be tossed.

Slippery Elm: Similar in appearance to Ash, strong, nice to turn, but more split resistant. Trinket box with Resin. Re-designed utility billie... 5/16 steel rod through the handle with lanyard hole and glass breaker. 5/8 steel ballast in the head. Sized for glove box or center console.
