New Penboxes - Color

[Constant Laubscher]

Here are some more pen boxes with some improvements in the color by adding white to the process. I can now do the brown Rosewood and Maple boxes after I have improvised and made some jigs and fixtures.
The first one was from a small photo on the Internet. General George Washington ( Lenny, this sample is for you).

All the others are just to show what can be done and the end product.

Thanks for looking, I am posting in the classifieds for those who are interested.

Very nice. Your post count scares me a little, though.

Thanks Constant.
I am now wondering if it's a little too much.
I like the Marine Corp. one where more wood shows.
I am going to try to find a smaller graphic .... perhaps of an early revolutionary war flag. Maybe one with a Rattlesnake ... Live Free Or Die.

What do others think? Opinions anyone?

Lenny,

I agree, could have made it smaller and the picture was not goo quality to start off with.

WOW! These are way too cool!

I saw some of these pen boxes this week. They are incredible!!! I like the new ones.

Very impressive.

Beautiful Boxes!!!!! I will be purchasing two Presidential Wood pen blanks from the George Washington Chestnut tree and the Washington pen box would be a great added featurer to this Historical pen. How do I order???? I have money burning a hole in my pocket. Greg

Constant, the reference to your post count I assume is that it was earlier 666 which is the number of the beast in the book of Revelation

Sorry, Guess I was to slow on that one or to fast and past the 666 mark before I have noticed.
