Slim Jim Writing Sticks

[jameshj]

Hi All
Always looking for something new / different, I noticed that all my pens, pencils etc have clips and I have not used a clip on a pen / pencil since my school days, so I come up with this writing stick. I am sure I will get your opinion and suggestions.
There are 4 with flared top ends i prefer these myself.
Timber/Materials are, from the left:
Corian, Corian, Sheoak,Brazilian, Tulipwood, Ebony, Holm Oak, Yew (Irish), Cocobolo, Boxwood (Irish), Rock Maple and Satine Bloodwood.
Swarosiki crystal are inlayed at the top end.

Now that is an idea I like well done it has lots of possibility's as a desk pen and an endless list of things that can be fitter I also prefer them with the flare on the end

Did you just glue the stones in the end

Well they are different. I like the idea about having no clip, but am not sure about the ends

 

[bassethound]

Quite like those,well done!

 

[Grump]

I don't dislike em but I might take a bit of convincing that I do like them.
I like the idea, but I also like clips. Court is out for me until I have looked again later.

Got them on ebay.

Very nice James, but do they sell?

 

[mattyts]

What about just pressing the cap in without the clip? Less posh though

I don't mind them, and they are certainly different which probably scares us old uns off them lol .. Good to see that they are named after a certain jolly fellow ...

Nice - although I personally would never (admit to) want a pen with a Swarovski crystal! One advantage of clips is that they stop the pen from rolling off the desk. Any thoughts on that?

David give you a chance to sell them a desk pen holder lol.

Get a bloody flat desk

I like them and the more I look at them the more I like them. I think to stop it rolling off the desk, it needs stabilizers David.

At least 3 crystals set into the sides of the pen will stop it rolling and add bling
