Elli,
PITH = <b>P</b>in <b>I</b>n <b>T</b>he <b>H</b>at. Instead of putting a pen in a hat and drawing, the PITH mistress (lady running the PITH) collected particiapant's names and drew names matching pairs of members. Each member sends a pen to their PITH partner. It is fun and I encourage you to participate in the next one. There is photo album with pictures of traded pens.
Do a good turn daily!

I haven't been around in a while and just noticed this thread.

Could someone tell me what PITH is? [:I] It's probably too late
to participate in the 2006 one, but maybe I can get prepared for 2007? [:)]

Have a great evening and it has been a pleasure to design and create this pen for you.[:D]

I am glad you loved it. I had posted it at TPS forum board saying it was for my brother because I know a lot of us here are there too. ANd I was not sure if you were a member. I am thrilled that you liked it was a first time with both the scroll saw and the idea so I think it came out pretty good
Bye Toni
 
I received a beautiful antler pen from Tom (smokey10) and some nice pen blanks too! I've posted a pic in the PITH album for all to enjoy. Thanks Tom! [:D]
 
Anybody hear from jbburri lately? I've tried emailing him, and haven't received a response. He also hasn't posted since Sept. 29th.

Massman, your pen is still in production, so far my concept is coming out okay, I do hope you will enjoy it. It just needs a few more coats of lacquer and some curing time, then it will be on its way.

Cheers,
Draken
 
Just received my pen from Mark (melogic) he did great on the pen. He will be posting the picture thru Jeff. Thank You Mark your pen is great and thank you for the extra's.

I received my PITH pen today from Tony Hamm. Tony made me a buckeye burl sierra. The sierra is one of my favorite kits and buckeye burl is my all time favorite wood. Each piece I've turned has been unpredictable as to how it would look. This one is really nice and Tony did a great job on the selection of pen and wood and also on the turning and finishing. A picture will be sent to Jeff for addition to the PITH album.

Thanks Tony!!

Do a good turn daily!

"The Heretic" (Dean) - your PITH pen is in the mail! Hope you like it! Let me know when you get it so Jeff can publish the photo.

cheers Eileen [8D]
 
Boomalia,
My wonderful pen showed up! It's a wonderful example of a BEB European.
Thank-You so very much. It will look marvelous in my private collection![:D]

BTW....The card you sent with it that explains the wood type is a great idea! Do you make them yourself?
 
Hi Ron Mc
The cards come from my wood supplier, go to www.penblanks.ca and on the left hand side of the page you will see Description Cards. They are a good idea to help sell pens. If you should order from him he is a trustworthy supplier. If not to much trouble can you post the pen and card, I don't have a digital camera. ( Money goes into Pen Supplies )Thanks to Angela for running the PITH.
Gary[:D]
 
Gary,
I'll try to get some pictures taken tomorrow to send to Jeff.
Thanks for the card info!
 
I received mine from Cigarman. He made a gorgous Black Titanium Baron Rollerball with African Blackwood. Finished with laquer. Sent a pict to Jeff earlier today. Not the best pict but about the best I could do with my old 3.3 megpix camera.
 
Here is the picture of the pen Tony Hamm made for me in the current PITH.
