Finally finished another pen - this one is a gift for a team mom for the little league team I coached this year.

It's made from a resin pour I've been working on - well, I've been thinking about:) It actually worked out first try for some reason. I call it blue silk.

12m cap/barrel triple start threads. More on my website (http://www.pensbylyleross.com/blue-silk-gallatin-converter.html) if you'd like to take a look.

Thanks for looking:)

So you make the things the pens are made out of? How cool! I love that acrylic, nice work!

Thanks! Yeah, I find making the resin to be a rewarding part of the project. My wife finds the mess somewhat less rewarding:)

This reminds me of the painting , "The Great Wave off Kanagawa"

And the smell, I'd imagine!

Great pour. Well done.
