Hi guys,
Back again with another pen that is near and dear to me.
I was graciously donated a piece of timber that came from a tree in Gilwell Park Scout Camp, located in Gembrook, Victoria, Australia. It was planted by Lord Robert Baden-Powell (founder of Scouting), in 1935, on his one and only trip to Australia. The jamboree was held in Frankston, but after the Jamboree a group of scouts hiked from Frankston to Gembrook, to what is now known as Gilwell Park.
Having been involved with Scouting for almost 25 years now, the symbolism to me and my family of this is amazing. I know its just a cigar pen, but I am quite happy with the result.
Finished with a BLO/CA combination
Hope you enjoy
Cheers,
Ryan
