Don't matter what it cost Tycoon

On the 20th I showed my Doctor my wife's pen that I made for her for Mother's Day and he said "Oh that's right, when is mothers day"? When I told him it was on the 10th he said "OH $H!T I am in big trouble, I need one of those. How much are they, It don't matter how much they are I need one".
So he asked her what color she liked and she said purple, so I mixed this one up with Alumilite. It's dark purple on the bottom with just a touch of pearl, and light purple on top with a lot of pearl. It has been MM to 12000 then plastix polished. It's on PSI Gold Tycoon.
It was Delivered this afternoon and every one was very pleased.
Any Comments welcome, Thanks for Looking.

Thanks Jason,.... I don't think he is in to much trouble he is the kind of guy that works 7 day a week, and she was real happy with the Pen.

Look great Max, was that a two color pour? Dark purple on the bottom then the light purple in a a tube?

Great color scheme.

Well for one, the guy is a doctor(so she can spend his money) and he got her a beautiful hand made pen, what more could she want, I mean honestly!

Max,
Beautiful Pen! You did a wonderful job. It made my wife jealous. Where did you get your display stand?

Nice work! I like your mixture with the light and dark. I tried that once and messed it all up. lol How could he be in trouble with a gift like that.

Yes it was two colors and I used 3/4" PVC, then I put it in a pressure pot at 60 psi.

Thanks Alex, I got the stand at a yard sale, I believe it is the bottom to a glass rocking horse.

I am so glad my wife is in med. She loves Purple and i would no doubt have to make something similar for her..


you cast alumilite in PVC? did you use a release agent?

Thanks Ron, Yes I used a silicone spray called stoner I got it from Alumilite. Once I treat the PVC I can do three castings before I treat the pipe again.
