    Default A pen and pencil set I made today

    I made these two this afternoon while the little master was asleep. MapleMan's blanks. They will probably go to my mother-in-law for her birthday.

    Looks like you have got everything working well now. The fit and finish looks really good, and nice pieces of wood.
    As John noticed, it appears you have started enhancing your kits by using different components, as I don't think any kits come standard with ichthys clips.
    It will be nice to see some more of Mapleman's blanks on your pens.

    They aren't standard, they are the fish ones from Timberbits. My father-in-law is an Anglican priest.
