They look great! Where do you find the long skinny drill bit?

Any story behind the woods used? Is the white pen holly?

I used a 1/8 thick drill bit, for the refill size, 5/32 for the head of the bic refill.

the white pen is pine, it take just a long to make a pen using nothing type wood (pine) than it take to using wood with a nice grain.

capt. eddie has a video on youtube about this.

we woodworker are always giving our stuff away, at lease when you give away these pens, the cost is little from your woodworkers budget.
