Where I work we packed up care packages for 3 servicemen that were sons and (fiance?) of coworkers. I have alsways wanted to make pens for serviceman but never got it done. So this was my chance. I made one for each and one for them to give to a buddy. The three on left are oak with black penworks, and 3 on right are walnut with silver finish. The middle one is red, whit, and blue wood strips. Its a blank I picked up at Rockler, boy was it touchy to turn. I used lacquer as a finish so I hope it holds up in that hot sandy region.
Thank you to the guys and gals who go to those regions and keep the war over there and off US soil.
