Thought on the Poseiden - Good Deal (?)

Stainless Steel Ink Poseidon Master Pen Kit

Seems like a very good deal for stainless, and I never made one. The drill sizes are odd, but not cost prohibitive. I would buy 4 or 5 kits if your experience has been generally positive.

I have had excellent experience with Wood Pen Pro...just none with their Poseidon.

Thanks for reading and sharing your experience!

I built a few last year and did a review on it:

At that price, I might grab a few more, especially since I've already invested in the bushings and bits.

I like this kit and have made several. The sales price drew me to it a few months ago.

Quality is decent also

great.. i am in.. I think. I am having trouble overcoming the $11.25..wipes out the Julymas 20% off code.

I don't get what you mean, Tony. The pen kit seems to be on sale at half price ($9.99).

It's a great deal. I just don't like it when the shipping is 1/4 of my invoice. I guess I need to buy more to lower the percentage LOL.

Shipping is from Hawaii so... in case you got more staff shipping will be like below 1/10

Dang, now I'm thinking one of those would look great in Carbon Fiber or Black Palm....

This looks a lot like the Churchill pen. I get those from Beartooth Woods in Colorado. Shipping is much less than from Hawaii.

I'm guessing a 15/32nd and a 33/64th bit would work just fine.

Why would shipping from Hawaii be any more expensive? Priority Mail is the same price anywhere in the U.S.?

A Churchill pen is like $14-$16 from Beartooth Woods and shipping is like $6.70

The Poseideon is $8 after 20% off and shipping is $7.50 for 5 pens or $11.50 for 10 pens.

My mind is not able to wrap around some of these comments

These are from stainless, I don't think the Churchill comes in stainless.
