Those are well done! I wish they'd stop making you buy that damn clip with the bullet kit, though....

I know but the customer likes it so thats what he will get...lol
I dont really like the clip myself...I wanted to get one and make from scratch but time crunch was at my heels......

You're absolutely right. However, next time I do one of those bullet kits, I'm gonna try to fit a slimlineclip in place instead.

Can you give us a little background on the decal pens??? Are these decals, are these labels, how did you apply and finish?? Inquiring minds would like to know. Thanks.

The pictures are labels. I printed them and wrapped them on the tube and casted them, turned and then polished them up!I sealed them first with CA and then cast.....Hope this helps....

Is the background on the elvis pen part of the label? or is the tube painted? by the way great work, fit and finish.

OK so what we are looking at then is a label with the background in it and it wraps the tube. I assume then there is a seam and you are hiding most of this under the clip??? How do you treat the seam and did you paint the tubes??? Thanks and again they look well done.

The background is all part of the label, the seam is under the clip(well most of it).Thanks for the great comments! I had a short time to get these done but they turned out pretty good I think...
