Love it:love_it:

Get £40 for it and spend the cash on more goodies. Don't you know wives are always right:whistling: Or is she thinking the money is hers:bwink:

Very nice looking pen Steve :thumbs:
I would think £40 is about right and if the wife says sell it, then sell it
Got to keep them happy :frenchkiss:
Or face the wrath of a displeased woman :rolling:

Yup, £40 is a reasonable price for that. Although its a hobby, there's nothing wrong with it paying for itself which includes buying new tools etc.

Looking at it on my big screen now and it sure is a busy blank.
You did very well to keep that intact.
As for price I would stick a 1 in front and make it £140.00 if I wanted to keep it.
That way if it did sell I wouldn't be unhappy about it init?
It is very blue and unusual, you never know what your gonna get until it's turned with any wood but especially Buckeye can trhow up some great colours and patterns.
It has to be one of my favourites. wish you well with it.
