College Colors

[Scratch]

I'm not sure where to post this request so Mods
please bear with me. I was wondering if anyone knows
of a company or individual who sells Acrylic blanks in College Colors?
I live in Fl and have been able to find Orange/ Blue for UF
but as my luck would have it I have a customer wanting a pen
in the University of Miami colors. (Orange / Green) I've looked until everything is starting to run together. If someone could point me in the right direction I would be very grateful. Thanks,
Scratch

PSI has some blanks in "college" colors. Not sure about the green, though. Try find some Texas "burnt orange"!

Scratch, If you don't have any luck with acrylic I can mix you a polymer clay tube. The colors are no problem as they are nearly unlimited on what you can produce. You could either let me know what tube you need and I could build it on the tube or I could make a round blank and you turn it down and finish it. Either one works, but the later has more waste. It could be done with strips, swirled, or whatever. PC does require a CA or Lacquer finish.

Good Luck!

If you send me your private email I will send you a chart of the bigger school colour chart with pantone color codes

Bill...could I get the pantone colors as well? Those charts are salty to say the least.

Thank you all for the replies.Sorry it took so long to get back to you all.
I got called out of state for a Family Emergency and just got back in town last night.
I've already tried PSI and Bear Tooth Woods but I'll look again maybe I missed seeing them or something.

+1 I used the "Gator Alley" blank from Ernie for a pen for my son's boss who is a UF graduate. Sorry, no help re Miami colors.

I have made some college pen by using 2 blanks and making the top one color and the bottom the other color, They have turned out very nice and my customers have been very pleased.

As a "Hard Core" Gator fan myself I've made a couple of the Gator Alley pens.
I'm having a hard time finding FL State and Miami Colors. I may just have to take 2 different colored blanks and make my own.
