061 - Mask pen holder

This is a simple but very cute pattern of a pen holder. It is ornamented with an interesting grotesque mask of simple but effective lines. It is perfect to have a place in the desk to store all those thing that usually get lost anywhere: pens, clips, erasers, etc. It is based in an old and very rare French pattern from around 1890.

The pattern has been designed to use 3/16 inches wood or 5 mm wood. We would suggest using 1/4 inches wood or 6 mm wood for the main piece with the mask. The pattern is quite simple so adapting the slots to use any other wood thickness is quite easy. These are the standard measures of the pen holder:

Height Width Depth
3/8 in. wood 9 in. 11,6 in. 3,4 in.
5 mm wood 24 cm 31 cm 9 cm

Please note that this pattern is registered and copyrighted. If you would like to have it I offer it for 9 € plus shipping. The pattern is computer made, which provides total precision, and nicely printed for convenient scrolling. Please write me to info@finescrollsaw.com to buy this pattern or for any questions.
