The Pen Stand

I really like the look of the stand, but why such large wholes? You’re hiding nearly half of your beautiful work.

cool but sef’s right. How ‘bout one like the ninja sword stands? Ah, but smaller.

Very rustic, & functional.

Nice stand Debbie. I enclosed a picture of the stands I made for my addition. If you would like the Sketchup drawing let me know. The case holds 12 pens and there is a place for your business cards in the rear.

Very original Deb. Just a tip, if you make a small hole, just enough to fit the end of the pen you can display the whole pen.

thanks everyone :)
Bruce – I think you have high expectations for my abilities! :)

I made it like this because for some of my events I hold this will be sitting in the cabin and I wanted the pens to be “safe”.

I am probably going to make a second one so I’ll take your suggestions into consideration for the revised version.

Rustic was my goal .. and to continue using something from my heritage.

Love the look of the finish. You’ve retained the “skin” of the wood. Very nice expression.
