I had somebody from Klawock, Alaska Saw one of my Cartriage-deer horn pens on another board call me last night. He wants that pen. I told him I wanted $40 + shipping and he took it. I have already got the money by paypal. It will be sent out Monday morning. Surprised the heck out of me.

AAhhaaa...a new "Entrepreneur" is born !!! And with 'world-wide' distribution to boot..Is this what they mean by "Globaliztion ??"....Congrats, Robert...Been thinking myself..at the rate I'm grinding them out (2 or 3 a day)..in a year I'm gonna have prolly a thousand pens on my hands....and I ain't got that many friends to pass then out gratis to.. Thought crossed my mind to put a display in my biz @ ten bucks each and "Voila !!!"...I got back all the money you've already cost me in this adventure....LOL..

As I said before, Bobby...."You're an expensive friend to have"...LMAO

"Current Inventory"..lol

Isn't that the coolest Bobby? I got a catering order awhile back from folks in London. Something about folks going to the trouble of contacting you long distance for stuff is just a little different then dealing with "locals". Gives ya a bit of a big head doesn't it? :)

CONGRATS!!

Good looking batch of pens Jim!! Going to be ordering some pen making supplies this week.

Hope to knock out a few small bowls & some bottle stoppers in the next couple days. Think theres a trip to The Cutting Edge in the cards in the next day or two too.

Brew I have almost made enough on the pen sales to pay for my lathe. Now I got a long way to go to pay for all the other stuff.:)
