I have been asked to submit a couple of Rollerball pens to a Church fundraiser to which I agreed to do. The theme will be all wooden pieces with a couple of crosses and pens.
I was thinking I could use holly in the pens since it is such a pure white wood and would be very symbolic in this case. I have used it in my segmented pieces before with no problems, but what concerns me is the softness of the wood.
Has anyone used Holly as the primary wood in a pen before and if so is there anything I should be concerned with (splitting, too soft, marring, etc...)?
Thanks
