    Slimline Beechwood set

    Beech wood with Melamine Lacquer finish. Propelling pencil and pen set, not in one of my "home made" boxes either. But in a presentation box all the same. I do realise there is a place for my boxes and slimline ones aren't one of them

    Maple and rosewood pen boxes

    Hope this is in the right place. I usually get these boxes from turnersretreat but they are out of stock and have a 7 week wait on them. I can order them from penkitsmall but before I do i'm wondering if anyone else knows a supplier in the UK or Ireland for them.

    A Pen Box from way back

    I did not want to add these onto Eamonn et al on their posting on boxes but these show the effect of using the same burl in a pen box and not. Peter.
