Very Cool. I wish I had the skill set and patience needed to make these. The blank is gorgeous. Did you turn the section too? - Dave

Thanks Dave. Yes, I made the section also. It's black because the one I started from the pen blank material didn't cooperate.

Very nice. I love the blank, and your finish is excellent.

I too hope to start making kitless pens sometime soon.

Very Nice! What is the blank made of? Whatever it is it made a sweet pen.

I do remember him. When turned down do the shells pop out?? I have recently made some shell blanks but I did the attach to a tube and then cast in resin. That looks like they were all just cast in resin and no tube.

Anthony owns The Golden Nib. No shells came out. I don't think they are real shells. I noticed no difference as I turned the blank. The "shells" seem to be pieces of resin.

Looks like they may be the same but different color schemes.
