White oak, walnut, and Baltic birch ply. 3d printed pen dividers. It’s heavy and pen dividers are slick, so it doesn’t travel, but it’s held up really well.

I like that cradle design. I think I'm going to have to steal that and make a 3D printable equivalent.

Possibly better as inspiration than as a download, but I did post it. Could use something soft and with touch of friction.

What are your favorite pens in your collection?

Things vary, but lately I like my Pilot Capless (steel nib), and a Lamy Safari with a surprisingly nice stub from a clone.

I also really like my vintage Sheaffer with the 14k conical nib, my Parker 51 Special, and an old Hero 330 I ground into a stub many years ago.

The only pen I’ve ever regretted selling was a Pelikan M200 retrofitted with a 250’s gold BB.
