Commercial Alymilite Pen Blanks

[TonyW]

Having read the recent threads about Alumilite pen blank casting and finishing I was surprised at the depth of colours it had and so wanted to try it myself. I am not bothered about casting my own however and so looked for some to buy, including on eBay and some of the Group's vendors. Unfortunately shipping from the US to the UK is getting a bit expensive for this pensioner, usually costing more than the blanks, so I looked for some in the UK, but could only find half a dozen in pale "wishy washy" colours. Can anyone therefore direct me to a UK supplier of Alumilite blanks in decent vibrant colours please?

TIA

Tony Wells.

Depending what you're looking at, I'm going over to florida in July and may be able to get some over there cheaper and post over here. Send me a message.

How bad is the shipping?

I cast pen blanks in alumilite. Most of mine are hybrids, (alumilite cast with stabilized burl caps). I live in Minneapolis, MN. USA.
