    I've got some blanks and tubes glued up, that I was doing for the Vietnam Vets batch.
    Alas, too many things have gotten in my way to get them finished.
    I will endeavour to get them finished in time for the Christmas batch.

    Hello! Has a cut off date been determined yet. I'd like to make sure I get the pens ready in time for the 2012 Christmas Appeal.

    Hi Branka

    I think we need to make the cut off around mid November to allow time, it can take up to 6 weeks for the mail to arrive, although at Christmas they open more post boxes.

    I have some cut and ready to start turning as soon as i get a chance
