Mesquite Pen & Pencil kit

Boy, mesquite may be nice to turn, but it sure gets in the way if you got horses! Very nice pen/pencil set, though! That mesquite sure is tough, too. You did a great job, for sure!

Those are really nice. I think I am going to order some Polaris kits. I like that style. Good job!

Thanks for the post! These look great, though I must admit, I was not familiar with the “Polaris” style. Very nice.

I turned about 100 of these Polaris kits last Christmas to give as gifts to my business clients. I did the Rhodium finish. I have not seen this satin finish yet and I really like it. Great job on the turning and I am anxious to try some mesquite as well. It is always nice when you get the good smell to add to the job, kinda like Olive wood.

These kits are very comfortable to write with as well. I have been using one of my own for over a year now and it is my favorite pen.

These are gorgeous pens. You did a good job with the turning.

Very nice set of writing instruments. Thank you for sharing.

Very nice. I made a pair from Walnut that didn’t have as much “zing” as your set in Mesquite! Great job.
