The green and yellow blanks along with the orange blanks should have been put down. I just can't imagine those blanks being able to sell nowadays, a bit like flares and platform soles. I know someone is going to say you can still buy those blanks:nonono:

Polite mode on.

If you hadn't made these, and sold them, you probably wouldn't have gone on to make more.
Without making more, you wouldn't have got any better at it, So they have their place!

Polite mode off.

I don't even like the carpet!:funny::funny::funny::devil:

I still have that piece of"Carpet" to keep the pens in a box, actually it is a piece of velvet type of curtain may not be any good for display or taking photo's but it does stop the pens getting damaged:face::face::face:

I don't like to say it, but I have some green acrylic just like that somewhere..:sob:

Might have even done a pen or two like that, I say might have...:devil:

But hey, when you made them I bet you were all cock a hoop . I would have been.. After all managing to sell them then you would sell ice to the Eskimos.. :face:

Now must stop taking the p... They were all nicely turned and finished, the red carpet really helped show them off as well.
