Mike has a new toy and is practicing 🙂. He hopes to offer actual signature engraving on pens in the future! This is a trial run..... it needs some fine tuning but it’s going to look pretty cool! (This is just a raw piece of wood.... practicing before he works on a finished pen!) ol l

Folks... it’s been over FIVE years since Mike has made a pen— he’s back in the shop.... here’s some that he segmented today.... to be turned next week. I’m so excited that he’s finally physically able to get back to it!

Connie will be at Bloomin' Festival in Cullman AL- behind the main building near the food tent. She will have a portfolio or two of Mike's pens---but he won't be there. Looks like he will be putting off all spring & summer shows & will concentrate on fall shows, due to his surgeries. He's much better, working on restoring a vintage camper-- but handling the small tools in pen turning is still a challenge at this point. If you have anything in particular you'd like for us to bring, let us know---and will add it to the portfolios!

Mike is having rotator cuff surgery as soon as Connie is finished with the next two shows----which means, he won't be at Christmas Village this week! He will have most orders finished before his surgery--and will have what pens he has at the Hulsey Holiday Happenin' on Nov 30 in Decatur. HOpefully NEXT year will prove surgery-less for him and he can get back into the swing of things! Two years in a row has been rather frustrating!

Saturday! If You've been waitin for fall weather--- it'll be here! And how perfect it will be to stroll through a beautiful park filled with artist from all over the south! Bluff park art show-- 9-4. Free transport from shopping centers close by!

While Mike guarantees his pens, except for abuse... Not so sure he guarantees them against this: http://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/386980/Taiwan-woman-fountain-pen-stomach-drinking-game-student
