I am getting a new pen! Okay, this is a little less mundane than normal, because it is a hand-made pen and the friend who made it let me pick out the wood and sent me pictures of the whole process. Because that’s what geeks do for each other.
I have taken the pictures and created a little web page for you. If you like them, and want your own, he’s building a store on Etsy (eBay for crafters). I know he has one up there right now, but I’m guessing there will be many more. If he sells enough of them, he can buy his own lathe so that he doesn’t have to go to the woodworker’s shop to use/rent theirs.
I have another friend who is selling handmade jewelry on Etsy. I had no idea I had such talented friends.
