Provenance of my pens

[terry q]

You have all seen White Oak Jack Daniels blanks from barrels, Scotch blanks barrels, Wine blanks barrels. The provenance of these blanks isn't quite so grand. They are made from the lid of the toilet seat from my shop. My memory isn't what it used to be but I am pretty sure some well known butts have sat on this oak.

I turned them into 3 veneer serpentine blanks. These are two I finished. White Oak blank with ebony/maple, mahogany/ebony. CA finish.

Are you going to be selling any of these blanks with a certificate of authenticity?

 

[Edgar]

The COA for these should feature the image of a Sears Catalog.

Not to be poo pooed. Bet the new owners never put them in their mouth to hold them even for a second.

I could. Written on toilet paper?

Great Pens and Blanks, Terry.

Love your Serpentine Blanks.
Excellent Fit, and as the Eternal Question Goes "Finished yet?"
Now don't get Flushed with all this Praise.
Sorry I just couldn't help myself.

Do the pens come with a roll of Charmin?

This just shows that you can make a pen from just about anything if you think about it ... I know I am new at this "butt" I'm impressed!

Just got through using my T-Seat, time to get out the alumilite and make some blanks. Wonder what kind of trim would go with dark brown?

Thats the stuff that will be worth big bucks in the future.
