I do love my hobby had a little play this morning made a Cyclone pen set in Satin blood wood and used a Mallee top off cut from making a bowl for a stand also a streamline pen dressed in Red Mallee burr which sold instantly

Your attention to detail is great.
As a matter of interest has anyone posted a 'guide to selling pens online, where to advertise, what to charge etc. I'm aware i'm asking turkeys to vote for christmas as potential competition but hopefully a) there's enough space in the market and b) my style of pen is different enough from others it attracts a different client base so wouldn't be treading on peoples toes. Sorry to nick your thread.

Healthy competition is a good thing my sales are a lot different to most as mine are fundraisers for veterans and terminally ill children and I auction a lot of my pens the old guide we used to follow years ago was to triple the price it cost to make a pen including your time hope this helps I avoid eBay and Etsy
