Woodturned Pens Workshop

Create two functional ball-point pens of your own design from start to finish on a wood lathe. Under the guidance of an experienced woodturning artist, students will learn to safely drill, turn, and finish wooden blanks into smooth handsized pens. Hardware will be provided to assemble the pens.

This workshop is perfect for beginners who want an introduction to the wood lathe or those with experience who are interested in learning how to turn wood pens.
