Pens Go Round

I have been holding onto this wood for almost a year and a half. I haven't been at the wood lathe in almost a year to make a pen. Due to a number of reasons. However, today, I got to write out some letters and decided I needed to treat myself. In July of 2021 my wife and I took a vacation and we took a (by accident) but it was an amazing experience and I got to see their hand and cnc lathes. I asked if it was possible to buy just a blank to make my own mini bat, but they weren't allowed. However they were able to give me a few scraps left over from their pro line of maple baseball bats. Well the wood in this pen came from one of those scraps. I am so happy how it turned out and so happy that I got back at the lathe! But I'm back! Hit me up for a custom order!

Got some lathe time in today and got to make a few pens and getting caught up on my back log. Felt great to crank out these beauties! 💎

This is a brand new style of pen to me! Even though it doesn't look like it this does have a kit. But it's what's known has a closed end pen. I've had this kit since sometime in 2020 I believe. As soon as I got this blank, it's one of my favorites by I knew this was the match I wanted. This kit by required me to learn some new skills and some additional tooling. So worth it! There was no sun out when I took the pics/vids but the shine from is certain it present! Those and pop! Thanks for the beautiful blank!
