A couple mosaic pens

[Texatdurango]

For months I have enjoyed Doc posting his mosaic pens so I decided to order some material myself and it finally arrived.

Here are the blue and brown mosaic patterns, both using Bock #6 nibs. I think the blue looks better with the Rhodium clip and polished steel hardware while the brown was crying to be finished in gold.

These pens are the larger size I make, now to make some smaller pens........... I love these blanks!

Great looking pens George. I need to nail those sections the way you do. Love these Mosaic blanks.

You must be cutting these on a sled or something to keep them little pieces from becoming, well....gone. The segments are really slim, and that is what makes these pens so 'cool'.


Well turned!!!

Beautiful pens George! Impeccable craftsmanship! Love the front sections on both of them..Doc

 

[skiprat]

Very cool George. Are these blanks already like that or are you guys cut-n-gluing??

 

[Toni]

Really nice pens George!!

 

[Texatdurango]

Scott and Skip (and anyone else who is wondering), We buy the blanks already made up.

These are acrylic blanks and have very precise joints and even if I decided to glue up some myself, I wouldn't try because I have such thin walls, especially in the section that I wouldn't trust a glue joint to hold.

Looks like you nailed both of them. I think the clip and nib plating choices are right on. Good job

Looks like that RVing did you some good. You are putting out some great product. You did a great job with the section line up.

In disassembling a pen, what are the best tools to use?

George,
Beautiful. Those are just fantastic looking. I have pen blank envy, I am very guilty and I apologize.

Good Job George - although I'm not a vendor (this year) in the Dallas show next month I do plan on attending the show on Friday or Saturday. Hope to meet you there.

Hey, it can happen! I watched Doc post his nice looking mosaic pens then another color then another so I ordered some myself, and I'm glad I did, I really like them.
