And I thought you meant politicians! Given this is an election year, I've seen a few around looking for votes....

Really Really cool project

Now that's funny

Very nice pen, and what a great idea for the pen holder!!

Look at the size of the fangs on that thing!
It's got rattles, but I don't recognize the species. If I run across a cottonmouth this year, what address do I send it to?

Seriously, that is a great concept! Pen holders are usually so blah, sameold, sameold. I love your idea.

Thanks for the kind remarks it was a fun project. When I found the snake in a novelty store I couldn"t resist. Smith

veeeery cool- do you cast your own blanks? there are some awfully interesting how-to's on the penturner's forum (step 1. hear spouse scream, step 2. see spouse run faster than you have seen her run in 30 years... step 3. get hoe.. etc etc...)

Thanks Lawrence the blanks came from Arizons Silhouette. It was a fun project and challenging. There are more pictures in the wood turning section. Smith

I'll bet you could make more than a few dollars selling those to Arizona Diamondbacks fans. I personally would LOVE to have one of those...too cool.
