I love making the Euro, bit I hate the included metal centerband. The first pen is made from a piece of DPR (Dodd's Polyester Resin) made by Dawn & Shane Dodd. (winpooh498 & doddman) it really is a beautiful blank in person. I eliminated the centerband and inserted a piece of aluminum instead.

The second pen was made out of a bunch of discarded acrylic pieces. The glue job could have been a little tighter, and I probably won't try to sell it, but it was a lot of fun making it.

Comments welcomed. Thanks for looking.

The little alum band does look nice.

do you have a photo of the pen that has the real yellow and blue blank?

Joe I like that first blank. That is a real nice pen. The second fun pen is just that a fun pen and I am sure it was fun to make. Thanks for showing.

Joe I like the aluminium band on the first one, it is simple but elegant looking at the same time, both pens are very well made and up to your usual high standards!

Those look good Joe, esp. the first pen! I like the modification you've done to the euro. The thin piece of metal adds a very subtle effect to the center band area.
