Thread: Playing card acrylic blanks

[QUOTE=Necromancer;2017786]Long story short:

A neighbour of mine is always giving me a hand with handyman issues, he does these things only because he is a really nice person and expects nothing in return. He and his wife are huge card players and have a huge shed in their yard and host card nights every Friday night, with up to 30 people attending. They play cards and drink till the small hours of the night, never any issues, never too much noise.

I would love to be able to pay back

Repost this request in woodturning forum, in pen turning, and have a look at the work of MBUMIK whilst u are there, he is your man I think.

I could be wrong and a blank maker could probably do it for you but I don't recall ever seeing such a wrap done on a slimline (small diameter) tube. Mind you, I haven't been making pens for very long so I could be very wrong on this . The Sierra pens seem to be very common for wrapped tube blanks.

Don't know - I have found blanks with the symbols only, I have found wrapped cards, I am wanting blanks with small cards on them. Weird isn't it...
