Pen Turners' Swap #2 #7: A hop, skip and a jump...

1 day ago by itsme_timd | 7 comments »

Hi Everyone, A quick and easy trip for the pen box this time. It made the short jump over to Ryno101’s in no time at all. He sounds extremely excited to dig into this! Funny how all of us (supposed) grown folks get so childish over a box full of sticks. Remember Lincoln Logs??? Those were awesome… Annny-how… the box is in great hands now and I know from the past posts that he’ll enjoy what awaits him when he opens this up. I’m actually starting to get...

Incra 998SE Miter Gauge

9 days ago by PurpLev | 9 comments »

So I am building a box frame using box-joints. I have my Incra 1000SE miter gauge setup with the stop block to cut the side pieces to length, and I’m all done with that. Time to cut the box joints. So I swap the blade on the table saw with my new (only used once before) Dado blade, I attach my homemade high fence for making box joints onto the Incra 1000 fence, and I’m ready to start cutting. If you’ve followed the details up to this point – you might have ...

Pen Turners' Swap #2 #6: Chasing the end of summer, more time to turn pens?

11 days ago by itsme_timd | 9 comments »

Hey LJ’s, ScottB sends word to us pen traders that he has the box in his possession! Sounds like he’s enjoying what he has to choose from and interested to see the stock changing as it moves along – Scott commented that only a couple items from Trade #1 are still in the box now. Down here (Atlanta) most of the kids are back in school, I thought that was the case for most of the kids in the US but I overheard a conversation where some schools are not going back until a...

Pen Turners' Swap #2 #1: Pen Turners' Swap #2 is Underway!

80 days ago by itsme_timd | 15 comments »

Well, a little bit of a delay on my end getting this one started due to some personal matters but we are on the road again now! The box is headed to freedom75 in NC now and he should get it within a few days. Here’s a map of our travels this time around: Our total traders grew to 13 this time, from 9 total in Round 1. We had a few from Round 1 step out and quite a few come into the trade. If anyone has questions let me know, but it’s pretty simple and there are some...

As Nils mentioned, the Goodie Box was on my doorstep yesterday. I wasted no time at all digging in and seeing what was in this Treasure Chest! WOW!

Pen Turners' Swap #3: One small step for pen turners...

181 days ago by itsme_timd | 17 comments »

The box is on the move again! A short trip this time from Karson to FrankA. Frank received the box yesterday but hasn’t had a chance to go through it – some story about -5 degrees and a dead oil burner. We’ll work with him some on getting his priorities in order before the next trade… :-) The box is ‘chilling’ in New York right now, here’s where we’ve been so far: Stay tuned as the drama unfolds and we answer gripping questions like...
