money were my mouth is
hi everyone
after telling Darren (bdar) that i make bullet pen too, i thought i had better post a couple of pic's to prove it
i use mostly 308 cal cases, once fired (that way the have a few scratchs and dings) for the nibs i use 135 gr hollow points, i drill a 6mm hole in the end and melt out the lead, and drill a 2 mm hole for the ink stem, for a finish i prefer to just use brasso that way they tarnish naturally, i have found that by just using the pen your fingers polish it again in no time at all
iv started trying to make them using 303cal cases but its early days yet (second photo)
sorry for the poor quality photos, not one of my stronger points
cheers Tony

Hi Tony they do look good, the streamline center band just sets off the .308's you have done a great job with them. I tried to get hollow points but the gun shop but all they had were 150 gr Sierra target projectiles. I also make pens from .303, 30.06, 30.30 and 300 magnums. for those I use timber, camo acrylics or deer antler when I can get some.
Cheers
Darren
