    Chad this is an AWESOME video. I really appreciate your professional advise. You are the George Clooney of pens makers! Handsome, smart and humble!

      What super nice things to say!! I (Amy) will make sure he sees this :-) and along with a good chuckle I also agree that Chad does have some great things to share.
      We had a whole conversation the other day about how when folks see success they often don't also know about or get to see all the failures and practice that leads up to that success, and that success should be shared so that we can all do well! There is enough abundance out there for all of us, and sharing resources and info is the way :-)

    Great advice from Chad. And it’s bang on. I am a small business owner myself in a completely unrelated field to pen turning.

    Thank you for the excellent advice, Chad. Are the $1K pens you've sold all custom or does that include high end kit pens? I've been following your custom, kitless, handmade, bespoke, turnkey.... videos for a while, gonna take the plunge and buy some tools pretty soon.

    • @TurnersTv

      Great question! it absolutely includes high end kits and in fact more of them have been really nice high end kits than have been customs. Collectors like what they like and it isn't always custom/kitless. It's about the materials you use, the story, etc. Have fun on your making journey and thanks for watching!!
