1st Attempt at casting

[RonSchmitt]

This is my 1st try at casting, U.S. postage stamps on a chrome Sierra, it went better than I had expected.

I would like to thank everyone for sharing their knowledge that allows me to try new things.

I would also like to let everyone know that I am MAD at you because this new found knowledge is probably going to cost me MORE MONEY

Comments on the pen are welcomed,
Comments on the lousy photo, not so much

Ron, looks like it came out nice and clean. Great job! Now I want to brave the cold and try one soon.

Very cool! can you post pic of the other side too?? Looks neat. Nice work

Looking good! Your new knowledge may cost you but how much more would it cost for you to buy cool blanks cast by some one else? Its all in how you look at it.

I agree - great job with that casting. I'd like to see the other side as well.

I completely feel your pain... and shrinking wallet. The pen turning bug is worse than H1N1.
