Andy wanted to give his son a gift that he would remember and become a family heirloom. Andy wanted to make his son a pen. With that goal in mind, Andy set out to teach himself how to turn wood, so he could make the perfect gift. it was during the Covid-19 pandemic and subsequent shutdown of life that he ran across an article about turning your hobby into a side hustle or business.
