First of all I want to thank everyone for the compliments, as always they are appreciated. When I firt saw this kit I was ready not to care for it, in fact for my first pen I picked out a piece of wood that I didn't think was anything special, what a suprise. First of all I ended up liking the pen and like some of the others that have made them I really think that they are comfortable to write with. My other suprise was the wood ended up looking pretty nice again remending me that you just never know what you have untill you get it turned.
In my opinion this kit is more of a modern or "out there" style (I can't think of the word that I am reaching for) but anyway I do think that we'll find a market for these, at least the people who make them may. One place that rings a bell is House of Denmark, I have a hunch that if the tubes were wraped in either teak or cherry and with either the black chrome or the platinum fittings these would sell very good. Then any place that sells the more mod, or out there goods would do well with the ones like I'm showing here or some of Ed' bright colored blanks. I'm not trying to talk anyone into making these I'm just trying to explain that I do think that there will be a market for them in the right place.
