re: the dowel.
The timber it's made from looks fine, My main concerns about it are:
The end looks unfinished, the toolmarks are quite visible.
It just looks like an offcut.
I think it would look nicer to have something that looks purpose made, maybe make something like a chopstick rest? http://www.hugel.com/pdf/Hugel_Chopstick_holder.jpg
I would actually recommend making a few, in the more common timbers you use for the pens (that way you can use a complimentary timber hue with the pen much like with the dowel)
