Moose antler? There seems to be too much figure for that, but I had to guess the background had some relevence. []

My real job is as a firefighter. I was at the station the other day and someone joked about making a pen out of a set of turnout gear, the protective gear we ware in a fire. So I tried it and here it is.The only problem I had is that gear is water proof so I had a hard time to get the CA to soak in. Now I get to make more for the rest of the crew.

Now that just burns me up, NOT. Looking good. Hope you never have to see it melt in your pocket.

Very nice work, great idea. Looks a bit like Curly Poplar.
Is that the actual colour or has it been dyed?

That is so cool! Great pen!
Any chance a person might be able to get a blank from you????
My mom was paramedic/firefighter and became an assistant chief/paramedic coordinator...did that for 18+ years.
She would love a pen like that...it's funny...she stills jumps when she hears a firetruck siren.
