Posted By: <b>Dan McCarthy</b><p>I bought a couple of pencil holders and keychains from this guy and I just wanted to plug him because I really liked the product. He gets cracked bats from somewhere (minor league/spring training/etc) and fashions them into pencil holders and such. The keychains are lacquered (or varnished?) where the raw wood would be and the pencil holders have a thin layer of felt on the bottom. I like them because they're a neat/unique baseball item, and that the seller is repurposing something useless into something useful - with all the recent talk of conservation and recycling I think it is a cool concept. Here's a link to his things:<br><br>http://shop.ebay.com/merchant/batbyproducts<br><br><br>Disclaimer: I'm not this guy nor am I affiliated in any way with him. I'm an English/film student in Boston and have a very limited knowledge of carpentry.
