I've ordered no 52, hopefully it'll go okay. I'll have push the price of the pen up though to maintain my margin :rolling:

But of course Ray, thats exactly how it works. Take the cost of the kit, the cost of the blank, add the cost of your time then think of a number and double it. :thumbs:

The George Watkins blanks are great although sometimes I am not sure about his colour combinations.

I wasn't 100% sure about them when I saw them on his site but bit the bullet and when they arrived it was like a good motorbike that should live in the front room and just be looked at. They are truly gorgeous and he is going to get more business from me for sure.

I can understand anyone buying them, but I honestly think the combos could be more complimentary than different.
