Teacher gifts No-picture-s No-picture-s Click the pictures to enlarge them

I spent some time in the shop today and made some gifts for my daughter to give to her teachers and the school nurse.

The kit is a “Zen” and the wood is Buckeye Burl.

Grant,

These are gorgeous pens. Very nice.

Thanks for the post.

Great job Grant. Buckeye burl is one of my favorite stocks for pens. Thank you for sharing.

These are really nice. Great gifts for teachers. My wife always gets a big haul from her students every year, but nothing this nice. I have never used Buckeye burl. I’m going to have to add that to the list.

Shannon, Buckeye Burl has a great grain structure to it but what ever you do make sure your tools are sharp

These look great – and they definitely make the best presents. Those teachers will remember you (and your daughter) with pleasure for years.
