Breaking out the Big Guns

[greeneyedblackcat]

I built this desk pen for a special client, he had requested a US Army artillery piece. The pen was built from solid billet aluminum to resemble a WWII shore defense cannon, I installed a roller-bearing in the base so both the base and cannon body swivel . The last pictures are before the OD green went on. I hope u guys like it>>>>>>>>>>> :cat:

Very imaginative and very well executed, top job.

I think $5 undervalues it though!

Beautiful paint job. And the pen aint too shabby either.

Thanks for all the kind comments, I was cutting for a while on this pen, I think I had about 5lbs of aluminum chips and curls on the workshop floor when all was said and done :biggrin:

Jim as usual it's a cool bit of craftsmanship. Excellent!!!

 

[workinforwood]

That pen really rocks Jim! I actually like it better without the green, but the green is still good. Your metal abilities are amazing.

 

[Stick Rounder]

That is cool.

I am kicking around ideas for my next wacky pen, I think I may do a M60 or M1A2 Tank as a dip pen, the barrel will be a dip pen and the turret will be the inkwell. There is way too much work involved in that one but I'm kind of in a large weapons mood lately
