Back in March I payed my mortgage off and rewarded myself with a MMRRE. Annndddd...there she waits, in my heated garage teasing me. Apparently wife says I need to finish my DM and JD restorations before taking another one out of the package. She’s right. But I’ve looked for an MM since 2004 and finally scooped up my dream version! WHY, oh WHY PINGODS HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME WITH LIMITED SPACE?!?!?
Curious about nib stories on these ( or any pin!) that never made it to freedom.

Quoted from hawkmoon:

I don't quite understand?? Why would you buy a pin you don't have room for?? Wife on your back tells me everything!!

I have space for two more squeezed in but restorations are taking up all that room. Funny how I have as much fun restoring as playing.

Quoted from elcolonel:

Your wife said you cannot unbox it until you have cleaned YOUR room that has 2 other unfinished pins???

I agree though. So it was a discussion between us. Just got my pf back from NEO, still waiting on trim from Chris Royalty.

Having my MMR is cool though. I ran into this issue years ago with a nib SM that sat for over a year before my other restorations were done. Friggen projects take up WAAAY too much space.
