clear(?) pen caps?

[mbower]

I have a pen from work that has a logo built into the pen cap. I've tried searching the internet but have come up with nothing. I'd like to use a similar idea to put logos on some of my pens.

Has anybody come across clear/open pen caps that can be substituted on a pen instead of the normal cap? I would print the logo, insert it into the cap and then put the cap on the pen with my press.

Ideas? Suggestions?

TIA

Sounds like the "label pens" like Stevers have been making. Coat the tube, attach a lable and clear cast the blank. (in a simple version anyway) Is this what you want?

Actually, no, that doesn't sound like it. Picture this. You are wearing a shirt with a shirt pocket. Your pen is in your pocket (hopefully closed <g&gt. You look down at your pocket and you'd see the logo at the top of the pen. Small circle with a picture inside. Replaces the regular cap at the top.

This is what I'm looking for. Any ideas?

I agree.

I've been thinking of casting a few of these, myself. I haven't worked out all the details, yet, but basically I think you would cast a fairly thin dark layer, attach your logo, and cast a clear layer.
