Hello Everybody!! Welcome to Brightwood Turnings!!
My name is Glen and I make wooden ink pens and other office items.

I have been a woodworker for 22 years and enjoy it very much. It is a relaxing hobby with huge rewards. I've been interested in these pens for quite some time and finally took the plunge; so here I am!

Every pen is made from the finest looking real wood I can find. This makes for an attractive looking pen. I do not use a duplicator which means some pens may look exactly the same, but they have subtle differences. This makes every pen unique. The finish is hardened. When the shine dulls, it is just a matter of hand buffing 2-3 coats of carnuba wax back over it.

My main pens use Cross type refills, which are high quality and make every pen write as nice as it looks. These refills can be bought at your local office supply stores nationwide. Parker style pens are also available.

Prices depend on wood species and availablity, plus metal styles. Further down the page you will see the different metals from 24kt gold plating to Platinum and on up to Titanium Nitride.

You will also find many different clips. From the standard straight clip to sporting clips and even clips for the avid hunter and fisher persons, as well as the noted Medical Staff.

Engraving and gold inlays are an attractive way to dress up a pen for that special someone in your life. Have your Anniversary engraved and filled with Gold. Your Spouse will love it!! Mine did!!

These are some of the things that can be done so you can have a one of a kind pen made with quality in mind that will make your Friends and co-workers jealous.

And the phrase "MADE IN AMERICA" is still alive and well right here at BRIGHTWOOD TURNINGS!!

THANK YOU FOR LOOKING AT MY WOODEN PENS AND OFFICE SUPPLIES!!
