Arrowshaft pen

[Penmonkey]

I just finshed this, It's my new personal pen[8D] I spent almost three hours on the top barrle, It was the most fun pen I have done ever. The arrowshaft is a easton XX75. It's hard to tell in the picture but it has a deer skull on both sides. The antler has a lot of detale but you can't see it in the photo. I am happy with it!

Was there a particular kit used in making this pen or was it assembled with parts from various kits?

No, it was a regualur slimline kit from CSUSA.
The arrow is an easton XX75 2213. I used a bent arrow shaft because new ones are very exspenseve. If you want some shoot me an email. With the way my dad and brother shoot, I aways have bent arrows laying around[] Not me, I'm aways on target.

I didn't mess with the arrow shaft at all. The antler was waxed, I does not need a finsh. I may try to put somthing on the arrow someday to give it a high gloss.
