I need suggestions for a Pen using Purdue Colors for my son. He is a grad and I want to make something special for him. My skills at present are limited at best to kits. Open to all ideas and suggestions.

A fairly simple kit that turns out really well is the Ultra Cigar. A blank that works for PU is the black/Gold from WoodTurningz link is below. The Inlace turns a little hard but high speed and very sharp tools and it polishes out super well. I would maybe suggest the gold and gunmetal Ultra Cigar kit would be a good match for a Boilermaker gift. A nice black and gold gift box and you're good to go. PM me if you need more info, I've made this pen and it was well received. Suggest you order extra tubes and maybe 2 or 3 of the blanks. Even if it doesn't crack or blow out, one of his buddies will want one too. Good luck.
