Also, we are used to buying cheap, disposable crap, made in China. Most folks don't recognize the work/time that is involved in crafting something that is truly unique, by hand. My father tried selling wooden bowls, toys and other such items at a flea market/craft sale once... all day long it was "That's REALLY nice!", but nobody wants to pay more than a dollar or two for something that took 3 hours to create.

I'll buy one of your pens in support of gnbrotz.
I actually feel guilty because I feel I'm benefiting from the purchase! Seems like I'm getting a one-of-a-kind pen, gnbrotz is getting a few bucks, and you're getting SCREWED.

PM me and I'll explain what color/style I'd like.
LOL you'r right, but that is besides the point, there are a few that believe in a good cause.
I will put up more pen woods when I cut them, problem is if i assemble them, they are done, cant take them apart with out damage to them, so I ask people to chose from the parts before i assemble them, this way, they will be perfect.
