    Default Fountain pens

    Made this recently to hold ink as I am getting further into fountain pens. Made from Eucalypt Burl I left the top as it was when cut cleaned up the piece was wax sealed ten or more years ago. Looking for a crystal bottle 1 1/2 inches round. All the commercial bottles are squat flat for a small amount of ink, I felt like running amok with different ink colours but settled for black at this stage. PS I dislike wax sliced the four sides thinly to remove the wax.

    Peter.

    I love it. The live edge makes it very classy, in my opinion.
    When all is said and done, there is usually a whole lot more said than done.
