Second Old Route 66 Pen

[Fireengines]

Here is a pen I created using an 11mm button I purchased off Ebay.

The pen is a Triton Rollerball using Jr. Gent tubes. The blank is called "Arizona" from KnB Pen Blanks.

The pine wood is from a building in Holbrook, AZ that once set on the original Route 66.

Nice piece of nostalgia for those of us who drove that highway. You could sell those by the bushel.

Nice pen really like the look of the wood and acrylic together.

Smooth idea. I am taking my father in law to Arizona in May. He is an old car nut, I think I am gonna steal your idea and surprise him with one of these for the trip.

Beautiful pen and better thought process, I love a pen with an attitude of cool.

OK, here is a stretch. I just found the address of Martin Milner. Tomorrow, I am going to turn another pine blank and send it off to him to see if he will sign it.

My questions are: should I coat it with one thin coat of this CA or keep the wood virgin. Second, what type of pen should I send with it so I can cover the blank with CA when if he returns is signed. Of course in a postage paid package.

Now only the older guys will remember Martin Milner and his relationship with Route 66.
