Was asked to make a sign

"An Unkindness of Raves" is what you call a group of Ravens.

very nice. I love those pen designs and the holder for them.

Very nice work John,
Be careful travelling with that .308 pen as TSA has no sense of humor what so ever. Personal experience. Again very handsome work Sir.

Thanks

If I ever fly again I am just wearing a pair of shorts, t shirt and a pair of flip flops mailing luggage to my final destination.

Hopefully avoid the TSA and UPS is probably cheaper than the airlines.

Thanks John for showing your work, and showing the raven carved. It looked like it carved nice. I like your pens and bottle stopper too.

What type of wood is the wine stopper? Is it bocote?
