8-9” alumilite rods

[RDH79]

Hi
I am looking for 5-6 different colored alumilite rods to make kitless.
I never bought them that long so have no idea who sells them.
I google them and there mostly sold out or not the color combos I like.
Thank You!
Rich

When I find a pattern I like but it's only 5" long, I buy two (or more). I usually get mine from Exotic Blanks or Jonathan Brooks (IAP name Brooks803). I see that NV Woodwerks also sells alumilite blanks but haven't bought from them.

I didn't think of Tim -- always associate him with DiamondCast blanks (which are alumilite with diamond powder mixed in) :biggrin:

Great!! Thanks for the names.
I never thought of just getting 2 of the same pattern.
Also I forgot about diamond cast also.
This will give me a start.
Thank You!!

Actually when you buy two regular blanks you end up with a leftover that may or may not match any other leftovers. Buy 3 and you have more than enough for two pens. If you don't fluff something up.

There are literally hundreds of resin pen blank makers in the Facebook Groups. One is called Pen Making Supplies and there is a Custom Pen Making - PAG Friends group that has a lot of good connections for all kinds of custom pen making supplies.
