Pencil holder stocking stuffer

I made a bunch of these for office Christmas presents. I wanted something that I could mass produce easily with my mediocre wood working skills. I looked around the internet and found a commercially produced version of this. It was an interesting form and it seemed like a neat trinket that people would want to keep on their desks. I stared off with two red oak 1×4’s and one .25×4 poplar boards. All three pieces were laminated together to get the thickness I needed. I went to a friends house to use his jointer to make the edges flush and get down to the final width of 3.25”. On my table saw, I cross cut the long blank into individual blanks that are 3.25” wide by 3.25” high by 1.75” thick. On the drill press I drilled two 1.25” holes laid out symmetrically. The finish is just one coat of tung oil.
