I was drawing down a bunch of these little tube sections in the shop late this evening and thought I'd just film some of the process for the old archives. These sections of tube become the cap finials I use on the Slipstream line of pens. I draw these tubes down instead of turning them to maintain wall thickness. I need as much wall thickness (within the cost constraints of silver) as I can get for the decoration that goes on the end of the tube when it's finished.
I think the audio track leaves a bit to be desired but I hope you enjoy the video clip. It was late ...
