One of my most unique builds yet — a handmade fountain pen crafted from a real corncob. 🌽✒️

This pen keeps the natural texture and character of the cob while being sealed and finished for a smooth, durable feel in the hand. Paired with polished metal hardware and a classic fountain nib, it’s a perfect mix of rustic charm and functional craftsmanship.

A true conversation piece for collectors, writers, and anyone who appreciates something completely different.

A bolt-action mechanical pencil with an oil derrick inlay…yes please!

This mechanical pencil features a smooth bolt-action…action (ha!) to advance the lead and even hides a small eraser beneath the primer cap. Believe it or not, the wood section started as 22 VERY small pieces at one point. This was the very first blank ever fitted for the bolt action pen/pencil!

Perfect for the man who appreciates craftsmanship, grit, and a tool that tells a story.

The last gavel of 2025! This gavel is made of teak from Puerto Rico featuring inlays of the working tools and a custom coin on the face. The overall dimensions match the Lodge’s original gavel with the WMs signature burned on the back.

As for the case, I heard the WM had a passion for hubcaps. This case uses an original 1938 Ford V8 hubcap with a checkered floor on the interior.

This gavel took some time to build. Made of old growth redwood that has been stabilized and dyed black. The white inlays you see are not wood but hand carved bone. Definitely a first for me! One underrated part that normally goes by unnoticed and I am most proud of is the joint between the head and the handle; notice how the handle matches the curve of the head - a not so easy task. A report back from the owner says the gavel is loud 😎 Mission accomplished!

These special gavels were commissioned as gifts to incoming and outgoing WMs as well as the GM. Still working on finding THE spot for photos as well as timing during daylight hours…. My 2025 gavel hat trick! Honored to have been chosen to build these!

I was fortunate enough for a Brother to reach out to me asking if I could build him a gavel. I was happy to help. This particular gavel was made to certain specifications with a new challenge for me, an oval handle! This was accomplished by hand with a rasp. With this being made of flame maple it makes the perfect gavel for a Mason who uses a flamethrower!!

A nice bolt-action pen with the U.S. Marine emblem for a close friend of mine! What you are seeing with the emblem is about 20 very tiny pieces precisely inlaid before being glued together. The pictures of the details do not show it justice. Very proud of this pen and even more so of my friend!

A special gavel made for the Grand Master of Nevada. This gavel is made of acacia and quilted maple. The handle has 3 acacia inlays at the grip and a lodge coin from the Brothers who commissioned the gavel at the end. The head is made of three layers of acacia wrapped around with the maple. The head holds some of the working tools inlaid in certain areas at certain levels as well as a Past Master’s jewel and a Navada Masonic pin. All of which were inlaid by hand. The bottom features a black and white checkered pattern with differentiating grain flow.

Putting the CIGAR in cigar pen … again! A “cigar pen” made from a REAL cigar… with absolutely no wood used in making this pen. This one was A LOT difficult as it lancero size, meaning super thin for a pen blank and even thinner after straightening (rounding) it on the lathe. Cool thing is when I trimmed the band, the wording lined up perfectly.

Putting the CIGAR in cigar pen! A “cigar pen” made from a REAL cigar… There was absolutely no wood used in making this pen. Aside from the hardware, it is made 100% from the original cigar.
