A Necklace Magnetic Pen
This is the second attempt by my son Greg at making a pen. He wanted to get something for a friend who is a nurse and she said when he asked what would you like and she said "surprise me". So we went searching and PSI came up with this. Not cheap by the time we got it here we outlaid $55.00. The freight was dearer than the kit and the bushes. The timber is mistletoe but not as spectacular as his first pen. The finish is the lacquer dipping method.

Very Nice work
I am sure that your sons friend will love the pen and I have a little bit of advice for next time you make one you should be able to get one from Tracy at woodnwhimsies they offer great service and charge only the required postage rate and no more. If they don't have the item ask them and they will usually try their best to get it.
Cheers Ian

A nice Kit and well made
A word of advice on these ,if you round the blank off slightly where it meets the metal they are more comfortable to use as your finger does not keep hitting the sharp edge in use. Cheers ~ John
G'day all !Enjoy your stay !!!

It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.
