    Restocking----Watch pens

    Sales have been good this Season---time to restock a few pens.
    We no longer build furniture so I can keep up with making these blanks.

    Hope you enjoy

    Nice pen Gary. Do you sell the blanks or just make the pens?

    I do both and I am almost caught up.
    I have one more custom pen on order, it's a customers grandfathers watch that doesn't run. I am going to build a pen from the parts.

    Gary, that is an awesome looking pen. I bet alot ot time goes into each one. Too many small pieces to work with. Have you thought about giving a tutorial on something like that?? It would be difficult but it would be very interesting to learn for those of us that like to turn pens (like me)........

    Donny stop by next time you are up this way and take the 25 cent tour.
    I have a room just for building these blanks------piles of parts.
