HANDMADE SCRAP WOOD FOUNTAIN PEN
A lovely Scrap Wood Fountain Pen that has been constructed from a mixture of light green /yellow with scrap wood inserts. It has 24 carat Gold Plated fittings that compliments this pen nicely. It is nicely balanced and enjoyable to use.
The finished pen is “pillared” meaning that the cap can be screwed on the back of the pen to extend it. This is ideal for anyone who likes to use a longer pen. It also comes in a black velveteen pouch to protect it (or black velvet pen box for an extra charge).
This pen is unique and made using resin and quality components. Once turned and sanded; to give the best possible protection it has a number of coats of finish and then a polish.
Please check all of the pictures as the pen being sold is the one in the picture and ready to post.

How This Pen is Constructed
- My first move is to select the blank that I want use
- After the blank is selected, it is cut to size and then drilled to take the brass tubes that the pen mechanism will be fitted in.
- Once the tubes are fitted the blank is then turned on the lathe to the correct size.
- The square blank is now turned and shaped.
- It is now sanded with very fine sandpaper, the finish is then applied with up to ten coats, being sanded between every one or two coats with 1500 grit to 12000 grit sandpaper
- The pen is then assembled and cleaned so that the finished item ready to be dispatched.
