Pen making workshop - Thursday Oct. 23rd

Learn to make a wooden ballpoint pen on a lathe. Great for gifts!

I’ll be running a workshop on pen making on Thursday, Oct 23rd starting at 7pm and hopefully finishing up by 10pm. This workshop is limited to 6 people due to the number of lathes we will have available to use and the space inside the VHS Machine Room. Cost is $10 which will cover the cost of material and the Eventbrite/Paypal fees. All materials will be provided however, if you have a specific piece of wood you would like to use (.75 x .75 x 5") feel free to bring it along.

Please register and pay at Pen turning workshop Tickets, Thu, Oct 23, 2014 at 7:00 PM | Eventbrite

Because of the interest shown earlier, I will organize additional workshops are required.

I forgot to mention that, because entrance to the Machine Room is restricted to VHS members only, you must be a VHS member to attend this workshop unless the VHS PTB lift that restriction for this workshop.

Thanks for doing this Steve! I can’t make Thursdays as I have a night class, but will sign up if you decide to run another workshop down the road.

At what time is the class?

I guess that would be a good thing to know. It will be from 7pm to 10pm. I mentioned it on the Eventbrite page and added it to the VHS calendar. I forgot to put it on the announcement… duh.

sweet, signed up!

sweet! im in

This session is now full. Once this workshop is completed I’ll book another one. I’ll try for a weekend but that is dependent on my social coordinator.
