    Default Gallatin in Blue Silk

    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 if you'd like to take a look.

    Thanks for looking

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

    And the smell, I'd imagine!

    Great pour. Well done.
