  • Turning Popsicle Sticks into Amazing Custom Pens
    I recently found out that popsicle sticks and craft sticks are usually made out of birch wood. And I wondered if they could be glued together to make custom pens. Plus if I stained the popsicle sticks before I glued them, would the color give them a unique look?
    So in this video, you find out just how easy it is to turn popsicle sticks into custom pens.

    Id love to see this done with actual popsicle sticks from one of those cheap big bags with a bunch of assorted colors. I bet all those colors would look pretty neat once they're cut and stacked together. You night even be able to smell some of the flavors while you turn it on the lathe.
