My mother had been showing off the pens I made for her and Dad. She was asked to have me send a selection of pens and yesterday one lady bought the pen I made out of Padauk w/ the gold kit. It was one of about 8 pens I sent and it was by far the nicest looking (in my opinion) of the bunch. I had also priced it the highest.

Kinda exciting to actually sell something. I usually just give stuff away. I was also asked to make pen / pencil sets. Havent made a pencil yet.

Scott congrats on the sale. Thats a start. My wife carries a acrylic hot pink pen in her check book. She snatched it up before I could even show it. Anyway I have sold probably 75 to 100 pens from her showing that thing off. Believe it or not I have sold about 30 of those hot pink pens to the ladies.

I'm looking for a woodturned sharpie.....kind of sarcastic, but not really, I think those would be pretty cool.
