Hello from NC

[WTC-Brett]

Thanks for the add!

I started turning pen about about 10 months ago as something for me to do after 3 knee surgeries and being out of work just going crazy. Everyone says it's an addiction but I don't see what y'all are talking about, I've only made about 700 from the start. My wife started doing craft show to sell some just to make some money back so I could turn more. Now I think craft shows are an addiction too.

Welcome to IAP, Brett !!

Are you serious about having made 700 pens in the last 10 months ? !

 

[McKenzie Penworks]

I thought my 300+ in 6-7 months was a lot... Welcome from down the way in Waxhaw! My in-laws moved into that fancy Carolina Arbors development in Durham recently

Yes, at least that many. When I do something I jump in the deep end plus they kept selling so I kept making. We did 18 craft shows the second half of last year and it worked well for us.

Welcome Brett!

I'm starting to find a few of you out there. I ran into a few at craft shows last year but most didn't seem very talkative there.
