Last Minute Christmas Gifts

adirondak5 · Dec 21, 2016

My wife and I are raising 3 of our Grandsons who are 7 , 5 , and almost 3 . Being they are all in school , the youngest goes to pre-school 2 days a week , the wife asked if I could make pens for their teachers for Christmas gifts , nothing fancy , just so the boys could have gifts for their teachers . I have a bunch of walnut and some blanks that have been sitting around so I figured why not . 3 brand unknown slim lines and 2 Tiny Giants , finished em up this morning . Nice to have the wife's blessing to get in the shop and turn , and nice to help the little ones out

Great Pens, Herb.
Great Gifts for your Children's Teachers.
Excellent Fit and Finish.
I haven't seen the Tiny Giant before, a most Interesting Pen, is it Postable?
Congratulations,
Brian.

Thank you Brian . Yes , the Tiny Giant is postable and actually makes it easier to hold when writing , at least with me .
