I NEVER would have guessed that Ray! My son now has a side business turning pens, including fountain pens. Nothing as fancy as yours, I'd wager.

I got my forum name on here when I was in the Army I used to work with a guy that would always see me surfing a gun forum on the internet, ar15.com, and he would call me banana-clip. So I just used that as a forum name.

My avatar is just my uniform when I was deployed to Iraq when I was stationed in 1st Infantry Division at Fort Riley Kansas. It has a Glock 9mm and Busse Steel Heart in the pic.

DT, I also used to turn pens and hung out at the International Association of Pen Turners forum. I like wooden pens so most of them were plain. The only fancy ones had wild patterned acrylic barrels. Hope your son does well in his business. BTW, turning pens led to a bigger and better lathe and the interesting world of wood turning.

It's interesting that we all come from so many varied backgrounds and interests. But that one common interest binds us all together like an extended family, and to me at least it feels that way. If I can't hear from my "brothers" every day I feel as if something is missing in my life.

No Problem Tom. What did I mess up? I've slept since I posted that you know.

I changed your "here" (as in location) to "hear" (as in hearing). wink

Tom, I’m giving you a friendly warning that correcting East-side grammar is a full time job with no pay. Good thing that you are retired.
