Way to go, Sparky! Goes pretty good once you get into it, don't it? I'm going to wait for my tubes before I ship and maybe even try to gather up a few more kits and add to the bunch I've already got. :cool:

The firemen around here don't get paided for sleeping which is a big issue with them. I'm actually a Test Engineering Tech for an electronics manufacturing company (Siemens). I do feel good about making these. I hope that the troops really enjoy them. Guess I need to talk to Ken about some more kits.

Sorry to label you a fireman, I guess it was the "sparky" name - it's a long running friendly rivalry between cops and fireguys! :p

The pens look great! Thanks for putting in the effort to make them!

Thanks for the nice comments John, Jerry, and Dave.

Jerry, No offence taken. I would be proud to be a fireman or a cop.

Sparky,

All look great but especially the two Koa pens. Where did you get the blanks for these outstanding specimens?

I got the Koa from Woodbay on Ebay. Great looking curly Koa.

Actually I got the nickname Sparky back in high school. We were playing baseball and the pitcher was terrible. I came in and pitched (a little better but not great.) and since I am left handed they started calling me Sparky Lyle and the Sparky just stuck. It was later that I got into Electronics.
