A Few Pens and Even More Blanks

i haven't made many pens of late, been busy making blanks, but here are a few of the most recent ones
a Mag Cap, 3 Sieras, 1 Cigar and a Churchill

BLANKS - this is an example of what i have been up to
the first 2 pictures of blanks were custom orders for people
the third picture are fresh out of the mold - 2 Zen/Mag Cap and 4 Psi Steampunk Blanks
the last 2 pickies are of tubes ready for the mold, most of which are in the mold tonight 1 Zen/Mag Cap and the rest are Sieras

thanks for looking

C & C Welcome

MIK

Outstanding as always Mik, you must have the patience of "Jobe" hehe:) You have certainly made these a standout Blank for the benefit of others , cheers ~ John

Thanks John, have you had a play with the foil as yet???

i had a visit from Neil a couple of weeks ago, it was good to meet him in person

i hope you sell lots at the market today

MIK

Good to see you are still keeping busy Mik :cool:

Busy aint the word Neil, did you get home yet???

Pickie 1 - a heap of tubes all embossed with 3 coats of paint and ready to be dressed up, there will be a mixture of armor plates, colored wire, watch gears and burl edge

Pickie 2 - fresh out of the mold this morning, a mixture of Zen and Siera Blanks

Yeh mate, just finished unpacking the trailer and putting everything away yesterday. Started raking up the crap in the yard, unfortunately I caught the rake on a decent weed and ripped a tenon again, so resting yet again for a while. Had a few visitors though that has been good, checking out what I brought back :U

i always said gardening was bad for you, i hope it gets better soon

i hope to see some pendants in the near future ... well once the tendon gets better soon :-)

For a bloke who hasn,t done much lately you still have a deft touch!!!:2tsup::2tsup::2tsup::2tsup:

Thanks Artme, i have done plenty though, of blanks that is

here is tonight's play

the first is a ANZAC Lapel Pin which i discovered tonight at the local RSL, i managed to thin it down a little on the disc sander and didn't loose any skin, it is still very thick so i felt the only components that would give it some breathing room is the Cigar

the Second is a ANZAC Hat Pin, also discovered tonight .. yes same place, this one is tubed for a Siera

hopefully i will get them into the mold early tomorrow before work, out tomorrow night and turned

if i can get all this done, i will be presenting them to the local RSL as a donation, to hopefully raffle on ANZAC Day

a rather tight schedule, all will be good as long as murphy keeps his nose to himself
