Hi Chris welcome to the forum and I told you you would very welcome on this site. Fortunately guys I have seen his pens and they are very good.
But as most of them will tell you " we like photos"
So think that would enjoy them.

Welcome Chris
As above, apart from your throw away BIC type (Very Boring) the boys and girls in this forum make some outstanding works of art.
Once you have met the regimental number of posts, very much looking forward seeing some of your creations, we do love photos here :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs:

Hello Chris and welcome along.

It’s not an addiction , they’re harmful ,

it’s more therapy really ie expensive and fun🤔🤷‍♂️ and the rabbit holes it leads to go on for a long way. I forgot to add it CAN be very cheap you just need to leave carefully marked catalogues and references about at birthdays, anniversaries, etc, etc. The downside is she then knows what it costs so carefully consider that angle too !!

Welcome to the forum, no cure I'm afraid, I've been to a few PTAs, pen turning addict meetings and came away with their pens....stay strong!
