I researched this on IAP, all the pens made from spent rifle blank casings were reamed out and a "bullet" tip was pressed into the top of the cartidge so the end result looks like a real shell casing.
My customer would prefer that I modify the shell casings as little as possible. The casings were from his grandfather's funeral at Arlington National Cemetary. He would prefer to keep the casings in the same form as he recieved them. His words were "Anyone can get a bullet pen made, but these casings are unique to me."
Question: Is there a way to secure the pen refill in the middle of the casing tip?
I thought if I used some J B Weld and packed it into the tip of the casing, let it harden, then drill the appropiate size hole for the refill thru the solidified putty....???????
