workshop combo sketch pen

[pittswood]

Hi guys,
For a change, I made something for myself this time. I bought a Deluxe Sketch Pen & Pencil Combo Kit in Chrome, from Pencrafts. It's a 5.6 mm pencil lead, with a sharpener and a changeable ink cartridge. Great pen/pencil for the workshop.
This one I made from a piece of olive from Southern Italy, purchased from olivewoodturning. It turned very nice, easy to finish and polish. Shellac sealer, melamine lacquer and wax 22.

Hi Peter,
One takes out the pencil lead and in its place puts the ink cartridge in. Its grabs the outer sleeve of the ink tube just like the pencil lead. You feed it through the front hole jaws.

Nice looking pen/pencil Kelvin

Looks really good, I may have to invest in one of those myself.
Less chance of loosing it than the multitude of pencils that have simple vanished in my workshop.
