My Favorite Pen

Clay (Clowman) made this one for me had to be well over a year ago. It's made from one of my secret sauce maple pen blanks and is my daily writer, just feels right in my hand like it was made especially for me. Take a close look you'll see it's flawless, despite it's gets used daily. Clay made it for the long haul...

Thanks Clay - Your an awesome guy - despite what DaveO says about you, don't listen to him .



Thanks

Pen blank secret sauce is not for drinking that's for sure... You game for pen blanks from my Grand Daughters Doll Cradle?

I have not tossed the scrap yet... some selective cutting will make some pretty pen blanks I'm sure...

Thanks

That's funny I still use to this day (despite all the pens I've turned) a pen made for me by Clay. It's from some of my Purpleheart scrap. It ain't very pretty any more as it has been handled and dropped extensively over the last 3 years that I have used it. But it is still a high quality pen and looks as good as any would considering the use it has suffered.

That sure is a beautiful pen. I've only made slimlines since that is one of the projects my high school students make. Here is my favorite one. It is made from a piece of amboyna burl and deer antler. The piece of scrap amboyna was to short so I came up with this to put it into a pen. The middle band is turned from deer antler as well.
