Topic tags/keywords: pen trade swap turn

Hi Jocks,

Our pen turner’s swap recently completed the round of North America. We had a lot of fun with it and I’m getting ready to start Round 2. We had a few takers but I think the topic got curied quickly so I wanted to post a quick note again.

If you are interested check out our blog of Round 1 – and let us know if you’d like to get into Round 2. We’ll start it soon so please let me know. I had a few Jocks contact me on this and I’d like to make sure you’re still interested.

Thanks!

Tim
