Seeking GPW aqua/pink/white blank
Hi everyone. I've had a very specific request to match some pens I made a few months ago now. As a result, I'm on the lookout for this blank: Aqua, Pink and White Acrylic Pen Blank
GPW website is showing out-of-stock (I'll ring to check that tomorrow just in case) so I'm wondering if anyone has seen another anywhere else or possibly has one (or two) sitting in a cupboard and are willing to sell. A close match might suit but it has to be close.
I've looked at quite a few supplier websites and have come up empty handed so far. When I broke the bad news, I even suggested I could cast the same colours but they want a neat ribbon swirl (damn rellies!).
Hopeful someone can assist.

Hello Doug
If you are still looking ? I can help you out with just 1 and the cost of that blank is expensive
the deal will be to replace mine when Gary gets them back in ? i am in no hurry to get it back but I thought i had 2 of them so will have another good look tomorrow if you still require them ?
Cheers Ian

I think a better deal than 1 for 1 replacement can be arranged too! In fact I know it can.

edit : GPW expects they are 6-8 weeks away.

I'm calling off the search.
Thanks everyone for your efforts. Even though Dorno kindly offered one, the search turned out to be un-necessary.
Turns out a couple of cousins were secretly gathering a group 85th b'day present for an aunt - comprised of lots of individual trinkets etc made by each member our generation the family. Without telling the plan to the rest of us. When they saw one of my own casting, they realized that was better still. Only then did they confide in me - after I had spent hours trolling the web, making phone calls and asking here. Oh well.
I actually like the idea - a little bit of everyone - just wish I was in the loop. I also suspect that some cousin's contributions will be chopping onions and pouring drinks.
