    True. Not quite wood yet (still tree) but I'm certain there is some wood hiding inside

    I have noticed that this year there are quite a few partners swaps that have not posted their received pens.

    If you have received your pens from your partner please post a photo in this thread. If you have not completed your pen please continue to update your partner so that they are aware of situation of the delay.

    Thank you

    I just sent a PM off to David. I didn't get the package in the mail until mid march. I was hoping it would arrive in time, but I expected it to be there by mid April. This was also the one time I didn't pay for tracking.

    As I told David, I will give it another week, then I will build and ship a new pen. I really enjoy these swaps, and I don't want darken its good spirit by not fulfilling. I wil make this right.

    I must admit to being a slackass in posting the pen I received from Simsonicole.

    My apologies Nicole!

    Here it is...a nice Sierra with my name laser engraved on it, plus a nice little stash of blanks!

    Default Got mine on the 14th

    Got home late Tuesday evening from a homeowner's association meeting and had a package waiting. I was to enjoy opening so I resisted temptation until getting home Wednesday evening. Here's what I got: some awesome timber and a fountain pen dressed out in Splatted Holly . . .

    Thanks Brad... And glad you like what I sent!

    Where's the sign up for next year?
