Mind Bender Contest #2 is now open.

The objective is to identify the main wood and the inlay wood used in this pen.

1. Send an email message with your guess of the two woods to iap.puzzles@gmail.com
2. Put "Mind Bender #2" or something to that effect in the subject so I will know which contest you are entering.
3. Identify the two woods that you think were used to make this pen in the message area. You can add whatever additional text or information you like, but as a minimum, you must name two woods.
4. You may only submit one email for this contest and only one guess in the message.
5. You must follow all standard SE Contest guidelines and your IAP profile must include your first & last name.

This contest will remain open until sometime on Monday Aug 15.

All correct entries will earn 1 point toward the overall contest total points. One of those correct entries will be drawn for an individual puzzle prize.

A note to the person who made this pen: you may enter this contest and you will earn one point toward the overall contest total if you submit a correct answer; however, your name will not go into the drawing for this individual prize.

Banter is encouraged, but please do not post any real hints.

Have fun - let me know if you have any questions.

Edgar

A little time left

Mind Bender #2 will close in a few hours, so you still have a little time to submit an entry.

If you can't find that pen in the IAP archives, just guess two possible woods -- you never know.... :)

Hint: as Derek noted, one is light and one is dark

Here is a link to the uncropped photo of that pen as posted in the SOYP forum by IAP member KDM (Ken McMullan) in 2010.
