So I have seen folks talking about wrapping items to the pen tubes and then casting them in acrylic, my question is along those lines but it deals more with raising the wraps so they are closer to the pens true dimensions. So lets say I have a label/image that I want to wrap around the pen tube but I don't want it directly on the tube because then it will give the appearance that it is deeper in the pen. If I wanted to raise it so that it was nearer to the dimensions of the pen, what would be the best method. I am not sure my question is very clear so let me know if it is unclear.
So for example sake lets say the bushing width of the pen is 12 mm (just a random number) and I am using a 7mm tube and I want to wrap the tube but I want the image to be nearer the 12 mm so that when looking at the pen you are not looking into 4 mm of acrylic to see the image.
Would then cast in acrylic for turning.
