10th Anniversary Casting Contest:

I have the honor of carrying on the casting contests this year. There will be three contests of which you can enter each one with a different pen.

The contests are as follows:
1. Swirls- You can let the resin flow with as many colors as you like. No restrictions to the number of colors. The only stipulation is that the blank must be all resin. Sometimes less is more...

2. Embeds- This contest is a personal favorite. Take an item or items, cast them in resin, drill through the blank and turn it. Let your mind go nuts with what you can put into resin.

3. Tube-on- You will start with a tube, place something on the tube, and cast it. Simple right???

More rules will follow with the official posting of the contest. The main rules are:
1. You must be the caster and turner of the pen presented. No teams allowed unless you would like to involve your kids of course.
2. The pen used in the contest must not appear on the web prior to the start of this contest (Feb 1, 2014) and must not have been used in a prior contest.
3. Pens/blanks made with the aid of a CNC, laser or other decorative lathes are ineligible. Please ask if you have any questions about this.

4. All pens must be on standard pen components. This is a casting contest, not a modified or kitless pen contest. No alterations to the kits will be allowed.

Please ask questions and get that casting bug going!

Maybe rule 5 should be no Brook's blanks....hmmm not a bad idea. :devil::devil::devil::devil:
Actually I don't mind at all if Jonathon plays. My goal is never to go head to head with him. So far I've been able to avoid it!
 
Hey now! I thought it was a BLIND vote this year :cool:. Ya won't know it's me :rolleyes:. I'll have to change up my typical photo background. Not to mention cast something no one's ever seen before :biggrin:
 
I think I will bow out this year and let the up and comers enter!

I have only ever cast 1 swirl blank so I am sure I can take him. ;)

Actually if everyone is going to drop maybe I could take second if there are only two in the contest.

I always look forward to seeing what comes about.
 
I will have deadlines posted in the official announcement. They will be in late February. But I thought you might like to start early on your designs.
