Impressive work! I love the variety of colors, and the finish looks excellent. Shellac?
Nice work! I would guess it gets faster and easier as you do more of them. I did a couple, and that's enough for me for a while. 
Colorful array! What a number! In 15 years of turning, I have yet to make one.
That's impressive and also interesting that you are not stuck in the same lane on style, color etc. The variety is incredible. Hope you sell them all.
That is amazing. Good luck with sales.
An impressive achievement, congrats. A job is the perfect description of making 1,000 of anything! Good timing to do that, I bet the tariff situation will be dramatically change the price of the hardware if you use imported.
Are some of them cut off in the bottom corners of the picture? I only counted 997. 
Some of those may be matryoshka mills, you know, a mill inside of a mill inside of a mill.
Wow I don’t think all of my turnings added together add up to that many. I saw your video a couple of days on your lac stick demo. Very good video.
Do you have a favorite supplier for internal parts?
Thanks! Finished with urethane, applied with foam brush
I'll take that one- NO! Um, maybe that... mmmm... there are so many to choose from, I can't decide!
Great job! I hope they sell like hotcakes.
Great job! I hope they sell like hotcakes.
I too enjoyed your video. Your skill with a skew is something to be proud of. You have a busy summer ahead with your show schedule. I hope it goes well.
Just amazing Tyler! Could we get a link to your video?
I believe you'll find it here:

Tyler, while your production is truly impressive, I believe you have one problem. From what we see in your photo, your turning tools to product ratio is WAY too low. The GNP depends on each of us keeping that ratio high.
