    Default Paua and postage

    My wife felt like making a Paua pen today so i suggested a new approach , as the gluing of individual pieces is a pain covered a sierra tube with a thin layer of black polyclay as a matrix which was then added the paua bit by bit , baked as normal ,then clear cast ,while I was casting I decided to do a quick stamp pen ,glued on some old stamps and cast with the Paua ,heres the results cheers ~ John
    G'day all !Enjoy your stay !!!

    The Paua looks great, your new technique would be far easier. Got me thinking of the pencils and other stick-on products we use, it would be easier for them too.

    Dam, now I've got to get some PC and a spagetti machine. Hmm, or call in to your place more often

    Those are very nice can I ask where you got the kit for the stamp pen? I have not seen it here in the states and actually like the finish very different.
