# 169 Pen Art Challenge Reload - YouTube


Could be interesting. Anyone know of this person???

 

[Lucky2]

I have followed his videos for a while now, he's a great person to talk to and to do business with. If you call him he usually calls back if he misses your call. He'll answer any and all questions that you might have about turning, plus he has his own line of carbide tools that are cheaper then anywhere else on the net. He's just, an all around nice friendly helpful person to deal with. I direct a lot of people to his site, even if it's just to watch his videos.

Everything at arms reach :wink:

I did not see that one John, but thanks for posting that. I have a couple of pens that may be candidates for entry.

I just love his videos and have watched hours worth of them. He seems like a great guy to me. I may send in an entry!

 

[Dalecamino]

Me too!

 

[mikespenturningz]

I entered a pen in it. I don't expect to win but it will be fun.

I will probably throw an entry in there too because he does not say anything about when it had to be made. Now to decide which one to post

# 179 Pen Challenge Results - YouTube


Not sure how many people watched this contest but if interested here were the results.

Congrats to Mike (Mikespenturningz) for placing fourth.

I placed sixth overall. It was a fun little contest. Always like to go up against the peers to see how you stack up. Will have to see what his next challenge will be. If anyone here voted for my pen I want to thank you for the support.

 

[mredburn]

thank you for the link John. It was interesting to see the winners. None of the top 3 was my choice but what the hey. I would have thought someone would have plugged the IAP in the comments, Or at least invited capt Eddie to join.

 

[BRobbins629]

Thanks for sharing John. Hope I can find time for the next one.

No Ed. I joined in Feb 2005. Visited before that too. I did not recognized the name because of his little activity here. Congrats on the win and would be very interested if he actually made the blank for that pen. The one problem with that contest there basically were no rules and you could not explain your pen. You were allowed only one photo. Still was a bit of fun.

 

[ken69912001]

Thank you everyone. I did place in the top three out of 71 entries. Woohoo
Yes I did make the blank myself.

Ok ok I just saw the video. Didnt realize I was actually number one. I saw many pens that I thought were much better than mine.
