Neat collection there. I particularly care for the tapering centre fit.

The colours are fascinating and give life to the pens. Scary Cane Toad. I experienced so many of them in Hawaii a long time ago where they were underfoot and everywhere.

Congratulations on your win, well deserved for mine.

hmm maybe greedy but total prize money only $14.00
not a super big prize or prize money didnt even come close to paying for the pen kits

Ah well, at least you can claim to be an award winning pen turner and charge twice as much for them :U
