  1. len, my drill press doesnt drill straight it likes to go off center so i use the larger one so i can turn it down and account for the side that is off center so itll be a bit fatter then a reg slim line pen...once i get an upgraded drill press i got a bunch of corian that is about 1/2 in wide that i want to get made into pens... but i guess u get what u pay for when it comes to tools...the bigger lathe is what i use to make canes. Thanks

  2. well its been awhile since ive posted on here.. been really busy trying to get up some inventory to hopefully do a few craft fairs this year. already had a few orders. Hope yall are good... the original pattern maker is under each pic... either cut on birch or sandeply 1/4 inch

  3. Travis, thanks, yeah pic doesnt do it justice, I can only turn up to 41 inches, and has to be pretty straight. I am working on a yellow poplar one now, just got done rough cutting it. should be finished tomorrow.. will post pic

     

    I would love to make custom canes,etc, i sold a sycamore walking stick on ebay 2 weeks ago, but these canes are a bit more indepth in detailing. Now for the big question, how much should i charge. ughhh thinking about pricing really screws my brain up lol

     

    thanks again for the comment,
