Wood Dying Turned Pens

Wood dying my pens is a technique I have been doing for years and is a fabulous way to spice-up turned pens or pencils. In this video, I show two methods that I use on two different style pens. I hope you enjoy this video and please subscribe.

I create handmade, high quality wood pieces (and sometimes, crafts using other mediums such as natural stone or acrylic) that connect to people on an emotional level. Each piece is meticulously designed to look and feel like an art piece. I have always adored art, and have an underlining mission to incorporate my knowledge and skills into wood turning. With my videos, I hope to inspire and encourage others while promoting wood turning, experimentation, and safety. Please stay safe at all times!

Thanks for showing me that you use the little plastic ziplock baggies from pen kits to protect your fingers. I have so damn many of those little baggies I've been tossing in a giant ziplock, and now I have a new use for them. I didn't even think about doing that until I saw your video, lol.

I dyed a baltic birch plywood pen. The alternating long grain end grain of the plies made a very interesting looking pen with the variation of dye soaking into the grains. Thanks for your techniques.

[@spwoodart]

Dwight L I’ve never tried dying plywood pens, sounds like a great idea with the strips. Thanks for watching.
