The pen my wife call's - "One In A Million"

[penmanship]

One, because it's the first we've done
In A Million - Because the box of 30 lbs of shred has gotta add up to a Million bucks (Canadian.....

)
So here it is

The next one will probably be named "Two in a Million", 3, 4, etc, etc........
Good thing Jackie's the brain's behind the operation.
The PR turned like any other. The only thing is the small air bubbles. I worked most of them out, and filled in the others with CA. A couple are still there, but I may have to get a pressure pot..............(these are just getting more & more expensive as we go!)

Very nice.

By golly they look like a million bucks!!!:wink:

Back in the day I would have said that a million Canadian is about $5 American. Not anymore! Nice!

Very nice lookin pen! I tried a couple shredded money blank pens, but there wasn't enough money in them to look right. Great job.

Sounds like my luck..................a day late and a dollar short!:rotfl:

I really like your pen. Your blanks are so full of clarity and the money shows up very well. I have done a couple of money blanks and they have all looked cloudy without that nice clarity, even though they were nicely sanded and finished. Your casting is nice done.

Great looking blanks!

 

[PenPal]

That Blank

For a starter is remarkable,clean and clear cant see the bubbles from here and I would wager a person receiving the pen wont either so much else to look at.

Regards Peter.

[cnirenberg]

Way to go.. Eh?

Nice Job. Money isn't the easiest thing to cast, dealing with air and amount of pr vs money. Looks like you pulled it off.

 

[johncrane]

Yes looks very clear great job, a little trick lve done (before) casting the money, was place the money out on some news paper, loosen it up or pull it apart a bit, then spray it with a Acrylic Clear Gloss, coat one side then once its dry, turn the money over and spray the other side l do this 2 or 3 times,then make sure its dry before you cast it. this will give the money a real shine and the bubbles don't stick too the money.
