IAP things that make you go...HMMMM

[Dalecamino]

If we take all of the pens that, have been posted on the forum and, put them in a pile....how big would the pile be? 14 years worth.

I think I have too much time on my hands :biggrin: Really.... how many pens have YOU posted? I never counted mine so, I can't say. :redface: But, it's a BUNCH! :biggrin:

 

[Band Saw Box]

I really cant say, a good number. I wounder if we were to place all the pens we have made since we have been turning end to end just how far they would go?

 

[dwarmbrodt]

Or, how big would the pile be from all the shavings from turning the blanks for all those pens?

 

[Pen-Archer]

There were 30,820 "Show Your Pen" postings*. If each pen is 6" long then laid end to end it comes to almost 3 miles.

*Not counting multiple pens per posting.

I wonder how long of a line those pens could write...

 

[edicehouse]

Better yet how much was spent on those pens? (not counting all the toys to make them)

 

[Dalecamino]

Or, how many CA bottles? Blanks?

 

[Joe S.]

Or how much time did each of us spend total on those pens?

 

[Dalecamino]

One thing I DO NOT want to know is how many $$$ I've spent on this hobby. :redface:

 

[mredburn]

Worse yet how many hours have been spent on IAP

 

[Dalecamino]

Worse yet how many hours have been spent on IAP

That's another good question. Time is something I have plenty of. :biggrin:

 

[NittanyLion]

How about how many times we've told our wives our hobby pays for itself?

I made that mistake at our woodcraft, she then proceded top tell me. it was scary to say the least

 

[toddlajoie]

Or even still, if anyone is like me, I've probably made 15 or 20 pens for every ONE that I posted, so how big (or long) would it be if we pulled all that have been made, not just posted???

Heck, I get looks from people who come in my office and look at the pens on my desk and ask if they are all mine, when I say yes they are, and there are more at home...
