What is even worse is that there is the international association of penturners, howevere someone could have the same opinion about our site ane the IPLA.

It's not our jack.
However, I will say that penturning is a respectable and enjoyable hobby.

He should make an edible pen!
"Teacher I can't do my exam"
"Why not Bobby?"
"Cause I got hungry"
"So hungry you can't do the exam?"
"No, so hungry i ate my pen"
"..."
Or something alone those lines...

Wow that guy lives in my area maybe I should get him to make me a pen.
@john bunsenburner If you want an edible pen, you could take some flour and mix it with water and some sort of flavoring then "cast it"(lol) into a metal pipe.
Yeah, it's that important.
