I do sell a few pens, give away a lot more. If you start selling regular then it becomes a job...been there and done that. I enjoy turning a few pens, While far from an expert they come out nice and friends like them.
The business end makes a profit but it is selling kits to pen makers. It makes just enough to provide a few simple extras and it is a job....
You can have a hobby turning pens or you can have a job turning pens but it is pretty hard to have both.
It has always been hard for me to keep having fun with a hobby if I got to where I was concerned with money associated with it. It got to where I would be more concerned with the money than the fun of the hobby.
