I decided to set up my GoPro for my latest pen-turning adventure. This was the first time I’ve tried to film one of these ‘makes’, so there is much more to be desired in the future.
This pen is from an authentic Olive wood blank from Bethlehem and is absolutely gorgeous. Olive wood continues to be my favorite wood for turning because if it’s incredible deep grain patterns.
Watch this time lapse of last night’s pen-turning:
Here’s the finished-product all set up for her first photoshoot:

AiG just released a brand new promotional video for next week’s Creation vs. Evolution debate between Ken Ham and Bill Nye. I think this sums up exactly why it is this conversation is so important and why the press surrounding this debate is growing exponentially everyday.
The debate begins at 7PM ET on Tuesday, February 4th, and is scheduled to run until 9:30 ET. You can catch the whole thing LIVE via webcast at debatelive.org
If you’re unable to watch LIVE, you can pre-order a DVD on the Answers in Genesis web store.
“It is the timeless story of the most beloved – and yet the most controversial – figure ever to walk the earth. Experience the most watched film in history based on the world’s bestselling book, the Bible.
After 35 years, 6 billion viewings, 1,200 language translations and countless numbers of transformed lives, this classic film taken directly from the book of Luke has been re-mastered in high-definition with a new musical score in Dolby 5.1 surround sound and special bonus features to bring the person of Jesus to viewers like never before.”
From the official press release: During the film’s restoration, each of its 173,000 frames were individually and painstakingly re-touched and re-colored, and new sound effects were added. The quality of the re-mastered, high-definition version of “The JESUS Film” is equal, if not greater, to other re-released classic films from similar eras, including “The Ten Commandments.”
“Unlike other religious films, which contain graphic violence or do not adhere to Scripture, ‘The JESUS Film’ script is taken directly from the Bible and shown in a cinematic style suitable for all ages,” Schenkel said. “The new greatly enhanced video and sound quality elevates the emotional viewing experience of this 35-year-old film to a new level, making it fresh and appealing to a generation that may not be aware of who Jesus is.”
