Every year I make about 40 pens to give away to the family at Christmas. I began the tradition about 15 years ago and each year I do something different from the past. Over the years I've used feathers, opals, snakes, stamps, abalone, items from Mother Nature, and etc. It's getting tough to come up with new ideas.

I was playing with the idea of a clear cast steampunk blank but I wanted it to be random and bold but with a touch of elegance. Like usual, I finished all 40 of them at the last minute (actually early this year, 3 days before I gift them).

This is what I came up with… No two are exactly the same.
I call them "Industrial pen blanks". They are dressed in the new Stainless Steel Diamond Knurl pen from Exotic Blanks.

Merry Christmas All!
