Inspired by Jims post, I ventured into the workshop and found some off cuts.

Did make 5 but the Better half nicked it for her new IPhone
Must admit great little gifts and will probably go down well in craft fayres and friends.

Must admit Johnny I must be one of the few who have never used these but they look good and I agree preferring wood to coloured acrylic except this colouring would make them easier to find on the desk or wherever ready for use. Trust others like them as much as your wife who obviously has good taste.

Kind regards Peter.:thumbs:

Nicely done, am sorely tempted with some of these to use up the off cuts but think that they might detract from buying the slimline stylus pens which I sell a lot of.

In your case Neil ..it wouldn't make sense, although you must end up with loads of bits from the amount of pens you get through. Alternatively I think I have seen somewhere a project kit for those things that sewers use for cutting open stitches ..that would be an alternative for you.
