I sent the ship an email asking if they wanted to take part last Christmas and have only just got an answer back that they want in.

I have a few pens in stock and just rattled out some new ones, will make some more and when I get enough will send the off. A hey say better late than never

Here are a few I made over the weekend for them

I saw a post recently where two pens using the casting principle had the RAN logo on them. I can't find them again.
Any chance of seeing them again?

You can download the logos from the navy website and then print them as water decals. Slide the decal onto the finished blank and seal, I use wipe ob poly to seal.

Other than that print the logo as a label and transfer to a painted tube then cast as normal.

I hope this helps
