Hi All,

Here are a few pens I've made. I like working with Historic woods the most- though the source material can be tough to find.

Nice looking pens. Always interested in hearing about historical pieces . .

Great looking pens Stephen! Welcome to IAP, I'd also like to hear more about the historic woods you've been working with.

Hi Stephen, and welcome to IAP.

You have me intrigued with your gallery of pens. Could you give some detail on the Historic significance of the woods please?

I like your pens and how you have arranged them for the photographs, well done!!

Dave.

Thanks for all the great feedback! I bought a really nice camera and setup with a lightbox and a macro lens to get really close up shots. I have been working with figuring out how to properly "pose" the pens and work with great photography. It's a work in progress.

As for historical - I am always on the lookout- I bought a bunch of the wood from the Constitution museum, some witness woods etc.

But I like looking into interesting finds too.. I do well with skull pens made from antique Ouija board, or interesting old wood items from the civil war. Combining them with specific pen types helps.

With that said- I have some white whales I can't get a hold of. Not for lack of trying.
