    Default Box for large pens

    I have made a Gentlemans Fountain Pen for my SIL.
    Can anyone please point me in the right direction as to where I can find a timber box to take 2 of this size pen. Preferable in Australia.
    If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.

    The pen is in Jarrah burl & has come up like marble. Photo to follow.

    Cheers

    Thanks for that, had not been to the site for a while, it is looking good, and I like the THREE pen box Idea. Amos

    I agree with kevM you can even get different colour linings to best match your pens

    Col. here are some photos of how the larger pens fit in the burl box that David sells.
    The first has a Sedona and a JR Victor. The second and third have a Sedona and a Sierra. Gives you an idea of how the different sizes fit.
