    Default Bill Jackman pen stands

    Does anyone know how to get in touch with Bill Jackman, or whether is is even in the woodworking business anymore? Email has gone unanswered, and I do not know his street address.

    I have one of his gorgeous pen stands, and would like another.

    Hopefully, woodturner and pen maker George Sherwood will make some racks. I provided him with some photos. He has a vendor table next to mine in the lobby atrium at the 2016 DC pen show. (Check out his rosewood and sterling pens, too.). PM me for contact information

    Your picture reminds me of wooden pipe stands (or racks) that I have seen in tobacco shops. I have a similar stand in plastic that holds four pens (and is really a toothbrush holder).

    @fredrydr Thank you sir for the kind words! I am thankful for your help and wisdom shared with me today. Folks like you are what will continue people's interest both as collectors and pen makers. I hope to be able to get in touch with Mr. Jackman as I would not want anyone to think I poached his idea and ran with it.

    Carlos,
    The design is very classy, and various woods make for beautiful work. The rack turns on lazy Susan type bearings.
    George, you're welcome!
    Jar, are you sniffing celluloid again?

    I hope it's been a great show, Fred.

    I had fun. I wish I'd sold more, but honestly, I go for the fun.

    It was a year ago, so I cannot recall. I also left a phone message with no reply.

    We may have a willing source, though!
