One aspect of the woodworking hobby that I have fell in love with is the art of wood turning! This is as about a delicate as it gets. The pens come in kits and the stocks are custom matched and turned to match the kits. The wood blanks come in endless varieties. You can also find the blanks in acrylic that allow for more interesting designs and colors. There are also blanks listed as stabilized woods which are a good mixture of both; soft woods that have been stabilized with acrylic.
