Harley Davidson, Donald Duck, Mossy Oak

[JohnU]

Here are three new pens I just finished and wanted to show before they go to their new homes. All three were made from my Cardistry blanks. They are turning out to be a lot of fun. All comments welcome. Thanks!

Well done John. The blanks are flawless, and the turning is equally fine. I love the Mossy Oak the best! Wifey also gives a thumbs up for the M. Oak!

Wonderful job matching the blanks to the pens. Especially like the HD pen.

Fantastic work. Like them all. And I agree with the comment above -"The blanks are flawless, and the turning is equally fine."

I'm not any kind of Harley fan but that combination of blank and kit pairing is gorgeous.

I've spoken to a couple attorneys in my area about these issues. Ive been told there shouldn't be any issues since they were all made using their products (playing cards) that they sold and received their royalties on when I purchased them. As long as you don't reproduce their image or logo I've been told its ok. Its like using stamps, watch faces and parts, pop cans, bottle caps, candy labels, or comic book clippings. I don't advertise or claim that they are made by these companies or that I am affiliated with them. I know case laws dictate and they pop up all the time changing the ways of the world. I'll have to research some more.

Thanks!
