I'm still getting used to turning these PR blanks so I'm still just doing the slimlines. I would've liked to have done a bunch more but it was just to hot today. A possible tip to all those that cast their own blanks. I bought an ice cube tray from Walmart for about $3 that seems to work just fine as a mold. Your blanks end up being around 3/4" diameter, 3-4" long cylinders. I poured yesterday and popped them out today with no problems. The only real test will be to see if I got the "swirls" I was looking for in the blanks since it was kind of difficult stirring. I'll probably try turning these on Tuesday or Wednesday and, if it works, I'll take a few pictures as I think you could get an easy 100 pens out of a gallon of PR using this as a mold. Thanks for looking
