Pleased to show off a pen commissioned by a good friend of mine @odysseyresincraft for her husband also a good friend and my usual DM. This is lightly spalted maple with an @axminstertools dragon kit. The box is cherry with glass/resin lid and yes I’ll put a video out at some point soon! #penmaker #penturning #woodworking #makersofyoutube #makersgonnamake #dragons #herebedragons https://www.instagram.com/p/B23-z92AlNH/?igshid=1wmgxk5dlny8n

Anybody else ever feel like they need to hand themselves in to the woodworking police for crimes against wood? 3rd failed mallet now due to inexperience and impatience 😥least I got the grain direction right now though. So when I eventually get this video done do people want to see the mistakes or shall I pretend that I’m a godly woodworker that knows that he’s doing? 🦸🏻‍♂️ #woodworking #mallet #woodworkingfail #impatience #upcomingvideo https://www.instagram.com/p/B1hHZU1gVBq/?igshid=z5qvacxy0eni

Really exciting news! You may remember that last year I was in a competition to become the Gorilla glue resident craft blogger. I can finally reveal that @GorillaGlueUK have picked 2 bloggers including myself! This summer I'll be doing a few videos specially for them and you'll probably see Gorilla glue feature more in my projects! Worth also checking out @confarreo the other winner to see her awesome stuff! Thanks everybody who voted for me in this!

#newtooltuesday well OK I got this @robertsorby proedge with my lathe before Xmas but I haven’t bragged about it yet or got to grips with it until now. Absolute dream to use and all my tools are sharp enough to shave with! (I’ll stick to a razor though) #robertsorby #proedge #woodturning #sharptools #sharp (at The Woodgineer's Workshop) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtyW9ovgLtZ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1wgx26yfhcql7

Never meet your heroes! Or at least don’t meet them and then make them watch your live stream of you badly woodturning! 😂. Still the razor turned out pretty nice and after some technical difficulties the live stream went ok I think :) #woodturning #thebestmencanbe #livestream #makersofinstagram #youtuber https://www.instagram.com/p/BtjztpKgS-w/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zuc5gq6yxq2k

Cracking out these fantastic wooden razor handles which will be in my store soon (preorders welcome) this particular one uses a @taylorsmirfield kit and cherry wood but can of course use any wood you can think of...So for those looking to throw away their razors down the toilet, these float making retrieval easier! Oh and they take @Gillette Mach3 blades ;) #Gillette #thebestmencanbe #boycottgillette #razors #woodturning https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs5Y-f9gYuj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1l8zjgzbok7r6
