I am overwhelmed with how many people have shared my videos and it makes me so happy to know that my videos are reaching millions of people around the world! Just to let you know I have recently set up a patreon page to help me so I can cut down the hours at work and have a day a week to make more content of everyone of you! (Instead of working from 8pm to well past 1am most nights when I am making and editing videos, it's the only time I have spare!) If you could spare a dollar or two per video it would mean the world to me and when I get to $100 per creation to give something back I will be doing a prize draw every new video to win one of my pens to one lucky pateron!

My mrs has the ability to turn bank notes into loads of stuff mainly shoes and handbags at the mo.i always wondered how she did it. (Great video btw.very nice end result)

I've seen a lot of handmade pens, but this is one of the most unique. You have turned a simple idea to an excellent end result. You surely are talented and you must have great love for your craft. I love it, it's elegant and beautiful. Plus, it's a great conversation starter! P.S. I also like the fountain kit you used. It matches perfectly. Can you give a link for the source of this fountain kit?

A very different idea - unfortunately I need all the money I can lay my hands on to buy more woodworking tools. Can't afford to turn it into pens. Perhaps you could sell some of these pens to James Bond / 007 fans as "MONEYPENny's" OK - I'll go back to my lathe now after that bad joke. Another great video.

@@he-mansuncle7661 When they are out and about in the hands of the public, bank notes take quite a beating. Eventually, they return to a bank, if they are damaged (torn, written on, altered or defaced) the bank will send them back to the treasury to be destroyed. They do this by shredding and/or dye, then freshly minted notes are returned into circulation.

Took me a few videos to realize what was bugging me. You dry sand your CA finish. I don't know if that's normal in some places, but most videos I've seen do wet sanding on the finish. And that's my approach, too. Can't argue with your results though. But i do wonder if wet sanding to 12k grit instead of dry sanding to 3k grit would make much of a difference.
