That is super slick. Wonderful presentation to a 'drummer' or a music lover.
Thanks for posting.

It doesn't look like you turned the drumstick at all. Did you get a kit that matched the drumstick dimensions?

Hi Nick,
The kit I used is from a German supplier and is based on the Panach (hourglass) kit.
I wanted to use original drumsticks but the problem I have is, I cannot drill with my Lathe and therefore I cannot be a 100% certain that I have hit the middle of both parts of a cut drumstick.
I simply copied the form of the drumstick that is included in the first photo. The wood is 24mm beech dowel, Drumsticks are normally made from maple.

Really very cool. Love the Idea. I have a good drummer friend. I'm sure he would appreciate one.

Andrew, where were you when the contest were just going on?? Man your work would have won you some prizes. I like how you think. Out side the box and creative. keep it up Look forward to seeing more. No problem copying shapes. That is what we all do. very nice and that would be a very nice gift for that special music person.

Very nice! I bought a nice set of drumsticks off of eBay sometime ago to make a pen with. If only I could figure out where I put it.... :-(

Very nice. I too thought you simply used the drum stick. Very nice job with the shape!

So, "she who must be obeyed", saw the drumstick.
Yes that is very nice, but don`t they come in pairs?
Yes, I say but I don`t have a Fountain pen kit for the second one.
Then buy one, she said.
OK, she Must be obeyed, I have to give some out money for my hobby.
Here is the result:
OK, there is a slight difference in the end of the stick, but I put it down to "Artistic license".

Wonderful - truly swinging - Gene Krupa would have loved it!
And any current drummer would feel the same.

Those are great. I have a co-worker that gave me some old drum sticks a bit ago and I have though of making him a pen out of one. Thanks for sharing. Now I have an idea to what his might look like!
