Attention all Pen Turners on this wild vortex call the Creek!!!
I have volunteered to organize and coordinate the "2011 SMC Pen Exchange" so that we Creeker pen turner’s can share our talents with one another. All I need is for you to “Opt In” by posting in THIS THREAD, even if you have already posted in the "Pen Trade" thread. This will be the official "Opt In" so that I will have a consolidated list of all the participants.
On July 1st I will pick at random Creekers from the list of participants and pair them. I will then post the pairs on this thread. It will be your responsibility to contact your paired partner to do the exchange.
I also want to make people aware that they are responsible for meeting their commitments for exchanging the pens. Make sure that you both agree on the type of pens you are exchanging so that the exchange is fairly even.
On July 1st I will start a new thread "2011 SMC Pen Exchange Photos". Please post photos of the pen that you received plus photos of any accessory items that may have came with it in that thread.
If I can get a moderator to make this thread a sticky until July 1st It would be appreciated by all? It will simplify keeping track of the list of participants.
A Completion Date of September 1, 2011 has been established. All pens should be turned, finished and shipped by 9/1/2011.
Have fun and here's wishing everyone a successful 2011 Pen Exchange, enjoy.
Thanks,
JD
