I did not want to hijack another post but an interesting thought came through that thread and it prompted me to post this question. I was going to do a poll but I think instead I would love to see the pens themselves.
The question is, being you are now a pen turner, have you made that very very very special pen for YOURSELF???? One of those pens where you do not let anyone borrow it including the spouse or kids. One of those pens that even if someone saw it and offered to buy you would not sell for any amount of money. If yes then that truely is a special pen. It can be a number of things. Items cast into a blank from a passed relative or friend. A blank made for a reason such as color or wood or segmenting. I know there are some here that have been fortunate to buy or were gifted special blanks or pens from members here that have past on. These have special meaning.
So if you have that pen please post a photo here and tell us your story. Always great reading human interest stories.
Thanks and be well.
