Title: A couple as gifts.
Post by: HaMeR on June 15, 2008, 08:03:16 AM
Just thought I would share a pen/pencil set I made for my BIL's brother for a retirement gift. He got a Thuya Byrl pencil & an Amboyna pen.   Ray has arthritis & these pens have a really big soft rubber grip on them that makes them easier to use. I also gave one to Vernon & Ray's Mom 2 weeks ago & she told me yesterday it makes writing much easier with her parkinsons & her arthritis. 

Amboyna Burl pen.

Artists sketch pencil with 1/5" lead for the cool guy making my website. Purple Maple Burl. These come with red/green/black& blue lead.  :eyebrow:

Glen,

Nice job on the pens.  I really like the big grip idea for people that need them.
