Over 100 new pens for a local art show

Finally finished crafting over 100 pens for the Denver Art Trail next weekend. Here are just a few of them. I've used rare woods from all over the world as well as historic woods from USS North Carolina and HMS Victory. Also, 50 caliber shells fired from a P47 during WW2 and a flashlight I made using an Alligator jaw bone.

I have a hell of a time uploading photos to this site, so I don't post often. For some reason, they're always too large or wrong dimension. Anyway, I will use several posts so you can see all of the ones I made.

Stunning collection that you should be deservedly proud of.:thumbs:

They look well made and has a good selection of "specials" in there that should create a lot of interest.
