Thread: Didn't get washed away in the flood so back to work.

Always good to think outside the square and create something different. Well done.

There's about a thousand styles of pen kit out there, some are neat and practical and some seem just plain useless unless you have hands like a gorilla. I was looking for some way to make these and future pens stand out from the crowd. And it wasn't hard to do. I needed to make a very narrow grooving tool (a broken long-shank Phillips head impact driver bit) and practice for an hour or so. I found making the groove slightly narrower than the wire and then dressing the wire into the groove with a tiny hammer did the job. Then came the CA glue to hold the wire in place and then another couple of coats as a finish. I might just shout myself a tiny soft-face hammer one day.
