LibertyDoc Posted March 12, 2018 Report Posted March 12, 2018 Hi everyone, Here is a pen holder I designed for several teachers. I used purple heart, maple, white oak and some other unknowns I found around the shop. One challenge was the cut around the ‘L’. Another challenge was cutting the Purple Heart - cutting pieces that thickness is not my idea of fun! The L was the school logo. Enjoy! file Scrolling Steve, new2woodwrk, Charlie E and 5 others 8 Quote

merlin Posted March 13, 2018 Report Posted March 13, 2018 Very nicely designed and cut...................... Q on placing pencils in the holder "Lead down" means a broken lead before you can use it, lots of people do this. Me myself have always placed rubber end down, always have a sharp pencil............... Quote

Me myself have always placed rubber end down, always have a sharp pencil............... Great point (no pun intended)! I’m thinking for now on I will use the tapered wood bit so the pencil point doesn’t reach the bottom. Thanks for mentioning this Merlin. Edited March 13, 2018 by LibertyDoc Quote
