John’s New Hobby

John has been getting setup to make wooden pens for about 4 or 5 months now and finally got around to starting his new hobby. The first pen went to Mona, the 2nd to Tracy and the 3rd to Miranda.

Since then he got a couple ahead for a while. Eventually he wants to sell them at craft sales or on the internet.

Different species of wood included in his pens are Black Walnut, Zebra Wood, Olive Wood, Spalted Maple, Koa Wood (from Hawaii), Padauk, Black Wood, Cherry, Mesquite, Aromatic Cedar, Hedge Apple (the yellow one), Spalted Birch, Mahogany, Apple, Soft Maple and Mopani.

All the woods are natural colored, there was no stain applied to any of the pens. Not all pens are pictured above.
