Here is what Gary did with that Rolex watch blank I got at the recent Auction. Is that a great pen or is that a REALLY great pen? Thanks to Gary for turning this for me and thanks for the picture as well. Will this be displayed in a prominant place in my collection - You bet it will.

We do not mention the price....I would never in my life pay $500 for a pen. And actually that would be $525.

Stunning pen Smitty and outstanding job of turning Gary !!! Now I'm really regretting not bidding higher...but I'm grateful to be typing this from home rather than a kennel. Again, Congratulations Smitty!! Doc

Wanna sell it? : )
Hmmmmm
That being said, since you asked...I would sell it at the right price under the following conditions .... the price offered must be at least $100 more than I paid for the blank; and the difference between what I paid and the selling price must be sent directly to the IAP as a contribution, I would receive only what I paid for the blank.
If the above paragraph upsets anyone the mods won't hurt my feelings if they edit it.
I can't offer things for sale in this forum....

Absolutely AWESOME looking pen!!! I wish it would have been in my budget to participate in that auction, but the bidding was well out of my range before I even saw the thread. Regardless, I'm glad to see it was turned into a real beauty and I'm sure Smitty will proudly display it for many years to come.

Sorry - I do not have permission to run an auction here. That is reserved to my good friend Ed Brown and I would NEVER attempt to infringe on that. All I do is sit in the crowd and throw up an arm or a leg when he says "And there she be boys, and quite a nice one from Gary Nichols work shop, so what are ya gonna spare me for this great item? Do I hear $10,000, and a paltry sum it is, to start it off"Well then let's start the bidding at $625!!!
