I did a thing

[Hippie3180]

I just popped on a nice storage box for the "for sale" pens to keep them clean and safe. Having them all in one place, clean and safe makes me stupidly happy. I've been coveting a storage box for months and finally did it…I'm very happy with the box itself, nice quality.

btw, it really isn't boogered up on the front there, it has a metal plate there and I think it's some kind of reflection.

I like it and I don't think it is stupid at all. I have been looking at pen storage boxes for a long time and am stuck between, can't decide which one I want and not ready to pull the trigger on it.

I've been looking for months. I pondered on many, in the end this is for the "for sale" pens. I went with the most quality/practical I could find. I didn't need a whole lot of storage..we're small and ideally I like to "sell out" of a small drop.

Oddly, I don't yet collect pens, but maybe I will, there's a few makers that I admire. When I do, I will look into a nice personal storage box.

I had 2 of these bought for me by family last year.
2 draws underneath a glass topped tray.
It can display 36 pens.

Very nice, that's a lot of pens. Isn't it nice to have a place for them?

Yours is Very Nice - obviously a much higher quality than mine by just looking at the hardware.

I have 4 that were relatively inexpensive. The pattern on the skin, vinyl I presume, looks like redwood burl. The top, glass cover holds 12 pens, but the two drawers underneath only hold 11 for a total of 34. I only have about a dozen slots left. I suppose I will have to buy a couple more when those get filled.

They fill up fast! - Dave

We'll see how fast it fills up. I'm very happy with it and I think it will do for what I need.

I just started using cigar boxes. What do you think?

I think cigar boxes totally work, if you can keep your pens from touching each other. A very resourceful way to keep your pens.

I have a very large cigar humidor. Must be 5' tall with 20 drawers and each drawer holds 25 cigars in rounded slots made of cedar. I don't use it anymore for cigars and pens fit perfectly in the rounded slots. It'll take me a long time to fill that thing up.
