It turned a batch of pens to send to the soldiers in Iraq, as part of a special project put together by the Cascade Wood Turners Association. I think this is in conjunction with a national program. I've included pictures of the set. I'll post separate pictures later.
I used a variety of woods, Cherry, Oregon Myrtal, Purple Heart, Australian M... (I couldn't read the writing), Spalted something, and a small piece of another oddball. These are all twist pens, and took about 1/2 hour each. Most of the pens were finished with super-glue and linseed oil. A couple were coated with a hard wax.
Enjoy, and be careful of the splinters.
