I've been making pens! Here are three I turned on my mini lathe recently, the woods are (from left to right)

Bolivian Rosewood
Cocobolo
Macassar Ebony
(Buckeye burl in the works, it's gorgeous)

Each one is made with different embellishments, slightly different widths and grips, and an increasingly refined process as I make more!

The refills are by Cross, and if I can find kits for fountain pens, I'll definitely want to try my hand at making those too! These are really hefty and dense and have great balance to them, so I'm pretty happy with how they all turned out!
