Do you pair the box to the pens after turning? That mahogany goes so well with the orange in that blank, lovely job on both... Well done:drool::drool:

Click to expand...

I very often batch make boxes without a reason or a pen to go in it, for instance this box was made a while ago so decided to match the pen to it.

Like wise if I turn a pen then I may make a box specially for it, or sometimes its a case of "what pen would look nice in this box" or "what type of box would suit this pen" so to answer your question, Yes and No :funny:

Great work as always, I have that blank on a pen light as one of my personal ones as I love it.

And your boxes are specials works in their own right.
