Looking for the most attractive way to display my pens.

Anybody have pics of their pen displays?

Do you make your displays or buy them?

Here ya go - rotating displays in Zebrawood, Padauk and Sheaoak - I've made about 40 of these so far, to display consignment sales pens and special orders for pen collectors.

Ed,

I think he was looking for a larger display, not a small simple one like yours. [:D][}:)][:D][}:)][:D]

however, if you need a tutorial to copy it, well,,,,,............

The photo is a bit crappy but here's what I use. It's bamboo veneer and regular dowel rods finished with BLO and glued into a mortise (done via a line-bore machine but a hand drill and careful spacing also works).

I recommend a spacing of 30-35 millimeters between hole centers, that way you can display pretty much any pen. Mine will hold even the fattest Gent or Statesman.
