Description
The perfect pen for an outdoor enthusiast, to use when writing their nature observations. This pen showcases the natural world with elements found in nature. It features tree silhouettes on the tip and the sun rising over mountains on the pen end. The phrase “Adventure Awaits” also appears on the pen top. The clip reminds you of an ancient giant tree representing the strength and wonder of the outdoors. The metal fittings are in a pewter finish to add to the rugged look. Hawthorn wood was used for the pen body. it seemed appropriate to use this wood as Hawthorne bushes and hedges are common when walking in the great outdoors. Hawthorn wood and Mountain Ash have a ver similar appearance with the creamy yellow sapwood contrasting with the dark golden brown heartwood
Cut from a single piece of wood has allowed the grain to follow through from top to tip. Having turned to body to the required dimensions it was sanded with several diminishing grade of abrasive paper. Next a coat of cellulose sander sealer was used to stabilise the surface before more sanding and then several coats of Melamine spray finish were applied.
It uses a smooth writing Parker style refill which can be changed by pulling the two halves of the pen apart. Next the twist mechanism is unscrewed (anticlockwise) to release the refill. Assembly is straight forward reversing the dismantling. However, it is suggested that the twist mechanism is set in the retracted position before the two halves are carefully pushed together ensuring the wood grain aligns.
