Friday / Weekend Open Line & Contest


Custom Made Stylus's by Sachs Woodcrafts

Starting Friday, October 21st through midnight Sunday October 23rd HiH will be having a weekend contest.  Simply comment on our open lines (in this thread) during this time frame and Monday morning we will draw a random commenter’s name.  That lucky person will win a brand new, custom made stylus courtesy of Sachs Woodcrafts.  Louis Sachs of Sachs Woodcrafts lives right here in Henderson, and makes custom wooden bowls, cutting boards, magnifying glasses, duck calls, ice cream scoopers, stylus, and more.  One of his latest creations is this custom made stylus.  A stylus is a device like a pen that you can use on your touchscreen device, like a mobile phone,music player, tablet, or pretty much any other electronic device with a screen that you would touch to use.  These custom made stylus’s are crafted out of wood, with a metal clip on one end, and a rubber tip on the other you would use to touch the device with.  The length is about 4.5 inches and they are quite thicker than just a cheapo BIC pen.  This item is great for those that don’t want to grease up your screen from finger oils, or for those people with large fingers that can’t hit the smaller buttons properly, or any other use you could find for them.  You can see a collection of various styles in our image here.  Note that you will only win ONE stylus!  The lucky winner will receive an e-mail to their email address on file with a gift certificate for the pen.

You can either use that gift certificate directly with Mr. Sachs, or alternatively Mr. Sachs will drop one off at our office and you can pick it up from the HiH office by coming in and providing us your username and your registered email address.  The downside to this is you are showing me who you are, but you can send a proxy if you’d like.

This stylus normally goes for just under $27.00 so it’s a great gift for a Christmas present, or to yourself!  Please visit Sachs Woodcraft’s website and like his facebook page.
