Special Commission
Hi All
I helped a friend in Brisbane with this.
350 Euro pens in Redgum and engraved with the company name.
I turned 200 of them and engraved all.
Thanks to David at Timberbits for his support.Lindz

Wow, what a collection
Euro, I would have thought any pen . I did 50 for a project I was on once, stopped turning pens for 6 months
Don't remind me, I give a pen as a parting gift to anyone I have worked for, or anyone who has worked for me. So far the cut backs have cost me ~$700, I stopped making cheap pens years ago , and there are still more to goNeil____________________________________________Every day presents an opportunity to learn something new

You must have had some patience to make that lot Lindz. Euros are a nice pen but they can be a pain with the parting tool portion of the turning. Great work. That's a big commission.
