Watch parts - Batch 2

[Twissy]

Well here's the second attempt. Quite a bit happier with this pair, although I still need to be more careful when gluing on the parts.
I'm also sure that John T is correct about the grade of CF.
I used PR to attach the sleeve this time, first on the tube then brushing it on once the sleeve was on the tube.
C&C and any more advice welcome

Nice job!

Nice job.

So what did you end up buying for Carbon Fiber?

 

[Haynie]

These are a much cleaner look.

 

[Janster]

Sweet! Nice clear, crisp and detailed photos to boot!

 

[dozer]

Very nice pens. Great job.

 

[Twissy]

Thank you guys.

Mike, it's the same CF as I used before, but put on the tube differnently.

Did you heat up the gears to bend them?

I hope I can learn how to make a watch pen like those someday.Really cool.

Not this time Jeremy, although I did make a former to assist in getting the bend more uniform.

Very nice.

Some day I am going to try to attempt something like this, but I am just to scared right now

Those pens with the watches are awesome. If you could get one to work that would be super cool as well.

One day I'll try making some blanks
