Pens for Soldiers

[jimmyz]

Just finished up 3 more pens for the troops. Our local Woodcraft here in Richmond has been very supportive of this worthwhile effort. Besides hosting our penturning group,they have provided kits and blanks, and even hosted a penturning event at the store this past weekend.

I am thankful for the soldiers who risk their lives every day. Hopefully, the pens they receive will let them know that someone appreciates their sacrifices.

Turning these also provides an opportunity for me to try some new tool techniques, pen designs, and finishing concepts. R&C welcome.

Great Cause for Pens, Jim.
Congratulations, By the Way, I don't know what has happened, but when I clicked onto the Photograph of the three Pens,to enlarge them to see, it opened my Photograph Album.
Very Weird.
Congratulations,
Brian.

I read in a veteran's magazine that one aircraft carrier got over 5,000 pens!
