This is my father!

My dad likes pens. Plain and simple. He started making them after my Grandfather passed and he inherited all of his pen making supplies and machinery.

Some of his pens he has made in the past

He has made, since he started a year ago, over 150 pens. He has been selling them to various people including friends and family.

One of the special pens he has made

A bullet Pen

He has also made bullet pens with camo for hunters, fishermen, or people who just enjoy the outdoors.

He has made some more fancier pens also

This is the first Fountain pen he ever made.

To branch out he decided to make wine stoppers

In addition to wood he also makes acrylic pens for a touch of elegance

Another acrylic pen :)

Always upvote talent and gorgeous things made by hand.

+1 for woodworking! I can barely get square right, I'm not up to turning yet - but someday. Beautiful stuff here, OP!

My dad is crazy about pens. Insane pen-a-holic. Could I get a price estimate pleeease, OP? I'm not finding one on the fb page.

Does he have a real website instead of just a FB page? Would be great to know prices.

Hand crafted, on a $600 lathe from a $18 kit. I make them too. I'm on my third pen so they only cost me $206 each.

How about now?

Honestly, I mastered the art by the time I made the 10th one, so I lost interest in making them. That's $60 each. Still using the lathe.

If you replace "pens" with "penis" this entire post turns out to be very interesting...

I did this unintentionally at the first frame and hit next... had to do a total retake

"My father and his pen business" Good god, the internet has ruined me too!

13 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Not as bad as me, when I saw the wine stoppers I immediately thought of something else they could be used for. The internet has ruined me :(

Write one time with a Mont Blanc medium ballpoint and you'll retract that statement.

There are good ballpoints though. Like the Pilot G2.

Writing with two quality pens?

13 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 1

Imagine writing with a good quality pen, while getting a blow job. I think there would be no more war after something like that happened

Add in double Q-tipping the ears and you're onto something.
