Bruce, have the kids noticed the pieces missing from their Clue and Monopoly games?

 

[DCBluesman]

Gosh Lou, we have a street in OKC that the pimps with feather hats hang out and even they wouldn't carry that.

OKC pimps can't even get it right! Now Huggy Bear woulda loved this one!

Alright, Hank is giving all kinds of excuses,, so I guess I'LL have to represent from the land of the rising sun. Here is a pen with perhaps THE most difficult finish in the world..urushi. It's Japanese sakura with 10 layers of seshimi lacquer and two final coats of roiro for the shine. Each stage is polished with several different coarses of whetted sumi and the final coats are hand rubbed out with powdered deer horn.

Also, it is stealthily designed for a quick change insert of a razor sharp samurai blade for any of you loud mouths that want to try to disturb my "chi".
Don't test me cause I'll yin your yang!!

 

[PenAffair]

Nice pen. Interesting shape.

Does it come with batteries?? :wink:

Russell.

 

[Draken]

Didn't know this was going to be a pissing contest, I would have built a bigger pen..

 

[OKLAHOMAN]

Chris, I thought this was for pens not feminine napkin insertion tools (Tampax) .

 

[PenAffair]

That's OK. Yours is the only one I can't think of anything bad to say about it. I need more entries, I haven't run out of insults yet, but I can only insult those that truly deserve it :tongue:

Russell.

 

[MesquiteMan]

Here it is just for Mr. Ed!

 

[jimofsanston]

I would love to get in on this but i screwed up i gave my wife a new kitchen for Valetines day (easy way to get new tools and a new 47 LCD flatscreen) so i have not been able to make any pens in the last 3 weeks. :wink::wink:

No darn it, and you just missed Valentines day. It's my birthday in 5 months. You reckon you can have another one done by then?

Russell.

 

[OKLAHOMAN]

Curtis, thats some of you best crap yet:biggrin:

Here it is just for Mr. Ed!

 

[DCBluesman]

Ahh I see that explains it. Your eyesight is so bad you can't even tell the difference between males & females, let alone a clean pen. I'm sorry I cast aspersions on your handiwork. My mum always told me not to make fun of the old or infirm.

Hope the larger font helps your reading.

Russell.

Ohhhh...you're a Bruce. I guess the frock threw me off. :biggrin: It looks even nicer on you than it does on your mum. :bulgy-eyes: Of course, that's still kind of a cane toad of a pen. :beat-up:

You bet Russell. I'll even throw in a tube of KY jelly for free...:tongue:

You'd think a moderator could read the rules. That make's 2 from the center of the country. Roy's signature line says it all.

 

[THarvey]

Here it is just for Mr. Ed!

The white background show off your masterpiece better. :biggrin:

 

[MesquiteMan]

Well, here it is too, for all the sh!theads out there!

 

[OKLAHOMAN]

Curtis will that come with a blotter or toilet paper?

 

[ldb2000]

I must say . This thread has turned to crap :biggrin:

 

[DCBluesman]

I hope it doesn't get delivered in a doggy bag!

 

[BRobbins629]

Well, here it is too, for all the sh!theads out there!

Some how Curtis's title got the body parts mixed. Should be more like the tail moderator.

 

[MesquiteMan]

Maybe not, Bruce! Someone said this pen is a little phallic on the other end. Some here think I am a d-head so maybe that is why Jeff gave me that title!

 

[ldb2000]

Butch, I started to say something about your pen, but figured if you were brave enough to post, I should let you have the little victories

I WON I WON !!!! Ben said so , so it must be .

 

[CaptG]

OK you pen turning wannabee's, I been watching this thread and decided it needs a real pen, one that does not need to gently held for fear of breaking it. I also chose a "kit" pen because looking at the sad excuses for kitless bottom dwelling and second grade scrap iron "works", this "Elegant" pen will stand out from all the other "crap" posted. I give you the home cast carbon fiber elegant sierra.

Ok , so now all we have to do is wait for someone to post one .

Ya, you just keep on trollin there Cappy.:wink:

 

[CaptG]

Fishin in this pond is just to easy.

 

[DCBluesman]

Nah. Looks more like road kill.

 

[OKLAHOMAN]

Capt' you need to bait that hook to catch anything and so far we aint seen any bait!

 

[PenAffair]

I give you the home cast carbon fiber elegant sierra.

Well it might be OK, but I can't really tell. One image is overexposed and the other is so washed out I can barely tell there's a pen in it. I don't recommend cheap tacky plastic lace tablecloths as an ideal background either.

Russell.

 

[DCBluesman]

Gary was hoping to submit this one but read that it had to be a pen of HIS making!

[DCBluesman]

Competition:
None from the sleeping sod…although he did have the good sense to use Heritance nibs!
Cartoon characters never win…unless maybe it's Little Annie Fannie.
Stafford County never wins at anything.
A scimitar and a crown? Just what kind of history do they teach in Henrico County?
Alternate ivory and a Heritance nib can't save that persimmon billy club.
Pods? I saw better in "Night of the Living Dead!
A Sierra and an Imperial in the same photo gets disqualified for having no taste.
The used tampon inserter needs to find a hazardous waster disposal container.
Poop is poop. I don't care how "hep" the cat is.
And the best looking CF pen is only in 1 picture and, therefore, disqualified!

Russell, if ya hadn't sucked air so hard it blurred your vision when ya saw what a sierra was supposed to look like, the pics would look just fine.

And Lou, you do realize that you entered the wrong pen, but wait, if this is your latest entry, then I just may have some competition. Good thinking. BTW, awesome choice of blanks.

 

[ldb2000]

I think Lou just woke up , that explains that dust cloud he posted earlier .

It's missing 2 eyes..looks like the money you could be saving with Geiko!

Well, Cappy I don't know about your pen making abilities but your trolling skills are unparralleled. :biggrin:

Jeff, I think your signature should read "Master Troller" rather than Master Scroller.
