Bought a Box....

[Radman]

I found this box at a second-hand store[8)][8)][8)]...

and made some pens from one side of it (so far)[:I]. In this (poor quality) photo, the other side is laying next to the pens. I'll use the bottom and other sides for laminanating other blanks.

Although I'm somewhat new around here, I'm sure this method of obtaining blanks isn't[)][)][)]...

Hmmmm... thinking "outside the box"??? or is that "Inside the box"...

Nice job!

That would be "thinking about cutting up the box"[]

When I saw the first pic, I figured "sweet, add a nice glass lid and some material inside and that is a nice display case." Never thought it would be used for blanks.

Sorry to tell you this, but that box was worth a king's ramson before you cut it up![]

 

[wood-of-1kind]

You're not only 'thinking outside the box' but you are turning the entire box. Very good reclamation project.[]

Love the pens. I visit the second hand store at least a couple times a month looking for wooden pieces thick enough. Good Job!
