Reviewer: Jim Hartline (Noblesville, IN)

The set provided almost everything I wanted to start pen making. The only thing that seem to be missing was the EEE. I say that because if you watch the DVD from PSI, it talks about using it. It would have been nice to have that in the set. It is definitely addicting.

Great starter kit. This set is complete and you can begin making pens and pencils within an hour or so. People love them and after a 3 weeks I can barely keep up with the demand. Nice to be able to fund the hobby and make a few dollars too. I would recommend this starter set to anyone interested in the hobby
