Introduction

[creativestitches2004]

Hello,
My name is Dusty Rall. Jim pointed me toward this forum after he had bought some pens from me. I feel like such a novice compared to the things I've read here. I have no website expertise, selling things started as cleaning up some of my messes around here and as I began to start woodworking a friend suggested I some of my pens on there to sell as well.

I also make other things in my woodshop, like kokopellis that hang on a wall, but I'm not sure what category they fall into so I haven't posted them yet.

Other than that, I enjoy quilting, sewing, cross stitching and beadwork. I live in rural Illinois with 3 dogs - a rottweiler, a shih tzu, and a poodle mix.

Looking forward to meeting everyone!

Dusty

What??? - No black lab or golden retriever?

Welcome to the forum Dusty.

Since I'm out in the sticks of North Dakota could you please explain to me what kokopellis are? We're a few years behind times out here.

Welcome!!!

Folks, Dusty here has an incredible product that I found to be unique, of high quality, and affordable. All of the things that make for a great gift for the bosses who have everything. I bought one for myself too by the way.

He makes them by hand and uses high quality Cross pen materials to finish the product. If you are seeking something unusual definitely give his pens a look-see.

While Dusty may end up learning a thing or two from us I am equally certain that he will be able to share some great info. Anyone who can come up with such a unique product and mass produce it is already somewhat ahead of the game in my book.

Once again welcome!

If the attachment worked correctly, there's a kokopelli guy attached. I know nothing about them exept they are fun to cut out on the scroll saw. I'm much better on the lathe than I am the scroll saw, so I've started with easy stuff.
