    Default John Made Me Do It

    well John here are 6 woods and 2 acrylics, not very big blanks i will admit but not Mecha just the same

    8 Mini Bolt Actions, left to right
    1. Mango Root
    2. Celery Top Pine/Jarrah
    3.Queensland Maple
    4. Camo Chip Acrylic
    5. Camo Chip Acrylic
    6. Camphor Laurel
    7. Manuka Root (Scrub Tea Tree)
    8. Dyed Buck Eye Burl

    All the woods have a CA finish

    these make a great little pen with added character, should be great for a quiver pen at Archery

    Thanks for looking, C&C welcome

    Hehe! well done Mik ! I have done a few of these as they can use leftovers that won't fit the bigger pens,my only concern is refills ,I give one with each pen ,but may be a bit hard to find in the general market place But they are cute hehe cheers ~ John

    thanks guys... did you eat your words John

    i also give one refill with the pen but they also get my card so they can get more if needed, i am pretty sure you can cut down the standard cross refills without making toooo much mess

    all in all though they have a fun factor, i have only made one prior to this and it lasted until the first person looked at it... not very long
