Hi all. My name is Ben and I'm a high school gym teacher from Maple Grove, MN (Minneapolis suburb). Just recently got into pen turning, only been on the lathe for a year or so. Really enjoying it. These are the first two pens I made and I donated them to an auction at our church. Went for $145 combined. First is a Bethlehem Olive Wood, second is Bocote.
