I don't make so many pens now as I just like the challenge of making the blanks.
My wife saw a couple of my recent blanks and wanted them as pens.
And here's another that she wanted.

Alan,

You know if there's anything with a pattern, you can make it!

Very few have a talent like yours.

Wayne, you are very generous with your sentiments.
I will have to try to live up to them.

I don't doubt that she'd want those to be used. Great work

Fantastic! It's good to see your blanks on some pens. I, for one, hope your wife wants a few more so we can see them.
