White oak, walnut, and Baltic birch ply. 3d printed pen dividers. It’s heavy and pen dividers are slick, so it doesn’t travel, but it’s held up really well.
I like that cradle design. I think I’m going to have to steal that and make a 3D printable equivalent.

Possibly better as inspiration than as a download, but I did post it. Could use something soft and with touch of friction.
You have too many pens. I’ll take some of them off your hands for you. No problem, mate. I’ll take one for the team here.
Seriously, though, that’s a beautiful penchest, and the crock bookends set is awesome.
What are your favorite pens in your collection?
Things vary, but lately I like my Pilot Capless (steel nib), and a Lamy Safari with a surprisingly nice stub from a clone.
I also really like my vintage Sheaffer with the 14k conical nib, my Parker 51 Special, and an old Hero 330 I ground into a stub many years ago.
The only pen I’ve ever regretted selling was a Pelikan M200 retrofitted with a 250’s gold BB.
