Pen Stand
As some of you know I enjoy woodworking. I decided to make a fountain pen stand to hold current pens with ink in them. I made it out of walnut and tiger maple and put ivory inlays in the top. I also put leather in the bottom holes and smoothed the inside of the top hole so the pens do not get scratched. I tried to make it a little old world and modeled after a pipe stand.

Thanks guys. As simple as this looks it was labor intensive. I do not think I will be making any more.
