Gold and "Quartz" cast acrylic

[elody21]

Ever since I went to Alaska I have been in love with gold in it's natural state, veined in white quartz. I have been longing for material to duplicate this to use in a pen. This is my most favorite pen that I have ever made in three years. It is with out a doubt a "girly" pen! The necklace is a real piece of gold and quartz bought in Alaska.

That is very special Alice!!! Thanks for sharing that beautiful pen!!

 

[daledut]

Absolutely gorgeous!!!!!!!!!

Would you consider selling a few blanks of that type?

 

[bajacrazy]

WOW!!
Absolutely Awesome Alice. You do great work.[]

 

[Old Griz]

Alice you have to consider selling blanks like that to those of us who are just tooooo dumb to do it ourselves....

 

[Fred in NC]

I agree with Tom. I think you should consider selling blanks.
It takes a lot of supplies to make these blanks. It is not only the resin, but lots of dyes, pigments, molds etc. For the number of blanks I would be using, the initial investment would be kind of high.

Ah, and I don't have a "stink sucker" either !!

 

[KKingery]

I agree - Fantastic!

 

[penhead]

I am overwelmed with the positive response to my cast pen! You are all so kind! I might consider selling the blanks. I just need to make a few and see the $ and time involved. I will get back to all of you on this.

[Andy Ryan]

COOL. you hit your mark with that casting. Can't wait to see more.

 

[btboone]

SCORE! yup. That's a high end look.

 

[Rifleman1776]

The positive responses were well earned. That is as high class and elegant a piece of crafts(wo)manship I have ever seen. It rises above the norm and is a item of jewelry. Please do consider making the blanks available for sale.

Very nice pen. I wanted to do something like that for a long time. I wanted to use gold flake, but never found any. I found a lot of nugget through Google searches, but never Gold flake.
