Thank you Lynn, you are a great teacher!!
I appreciate the knowledge you share my friend. Thank you.
Thanks Lynn. I watched this a few years ago, but time goes by and I haven't done much pen turning recently. Seeing this as I start turning again reminds me to not order any pen boxes or gift tubes, but rather make my own from some scrap wood.
Glad it continues to help
Great Job, now to the shop!
Well, this helped me out a lot. I don't have a router table, but that won't stop me. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching
beautifull pen box !!!!!!!!!!!!
Smart people can make beautiful things with anything. Thanks for sharing.
Quick and easy box that looks nice. I'm off right now to give it a try.
I’ve been struggling with box ideas and I’m under a time crunch to try and make one for a customer. This will help me a ton. Thank you.
Nice box. Love the hinge idea.
Loved it!!! Thanks for giving me inspiration!!!
Turned out beautiful
I know video is 8 years old, but that box is gorgeous..
Just the right type of box for my pens, thank you
+Peter Rotherham Thank you Peter for watching, good luck in making them.
Thanks, needed to make a pen box for our daughter who is graduating as a Nurse Practitioner from University of Virginia. I made her a Cocobolo fountain pen. This will help me make a nice box for the pen!
Love this idea! I watched the video twice. Love the idea. Love the way you teach! Such a great gift Thank you, Awesome!
Thanks Melissa, I try to make it where people can understand and make their own. I appreciate your thoughts
Thanks Lynn. That is a great video and an excellent use of "scrap wood". This is an ideal project to complement the wood pens I have turned for gifts. Thanks for taking the time to make the video, and for sharing your ideas.
You are welcome - Thank you for taking the time to watch, glad you found it helpful.
I am currently setting myself up with a little wood turning space in my spare room. I currently have a lathe, a mitre saw, and some bits of timber. I am waiting on a bench grinder with a belt sander attachment, and my next purchase will be a pen making jig, some pen kits, and some wood blanks. This box idea is great and I will be using your example to make some boxes for my pens. Great video and tutorial, thanks.
Thank you, great idea and money saver! Easy and very informative.
Thank you for this, I have just made several of these for some corian pens for family presents. I have also subscribed! Tim
+Orion I really appreciate the sub and thanks for watching

Now I have a use for all those shorts that I did not know what to do with them - excellent.
+Mark Harding Thanks Mark, I got another video coming in a couple weeks on utilizing the "shorts". Thanks for watching.
Jolly Good. I sensed that you enjoyed this project, and I dare say, that's why we love our shops and tools. Do some more.
+TheRocketbob22 it was fun, but most of my woodworking is. Thanks for watching and commenting. Best Regards
Great idea, I’m making it right now. I’m going to trim down the sides first before I glue the bottom, because I don’t have a belt sander. Thanks for the video. 😊
Nice way to present a pen. I love the inset contrasting wood.
+Michael Lawing Thanks Michael, I love working with complimenting and contrasting woods.
Great project, nicely thought out for all the details. Nice enough to be used as a presentation piece.

I love this wood working book *TopFineWoodworking. Com* . A few of the topics talked about in the book include wood working strategies, explanation on the development cycles of trees, and various lumber characteristics that craftsmen favor. I also provided my father another copy.

I think your idea is great. For extra special, I'd add a felt liner in the inside and brass fittings somehow.
A toda madre. Gracias.
Hi Lynn, Found this one while looking for Pen Box Videos.
Lovely looking box and a great explanation of the process.
I will be making some of these in the future.
When are you going to be back on YT as it's been 11 months since you last one, making a wand.
Take care Lynn,
Cheers, Huw
This method would make a nice dice tray for tabletop gaming. It would probably make a nice quite a lot of things, in fact.
