Pen for a customer

This is two shots of the same picture. I hope the star and cross motif doesn’t offend it is not anti anything. If you want to know the story contact me off line and I will be glad to explain.

Very nice Ron! Did you have them laser engraved, or did you do those yourself? I'm guessing laser, since there's no way I could be that exact, but then if I were to use that as my barmoeter, I'd be underestimating a LOT of people here, too!

Great work on both pens Ron!![][]

The engraving is by Kellenshaan Woods

Very nice Ron.

The STAR looks a little unsymmetrical to me.....am assuming it is due to the perspective of the picture??

Added: Maybe I meant to say asymmetrical?? Is there a difference[?]

 

[Thumbs]

Randy, I thought the same but then considered the bar on the cross. As it is asymmetric, also, I'm presuming it's just an artifact of the camera's angle and distance to the subject.[]

Nice looking pen. Must be some story...

 

[rtparso]

The star and the cross are truetype fonts any worpage is optical.
BTW both pic's are of the same pen.

It also depends if the laser has a rotary axis or just an XY axis table. Things will get more distorted on the edges of a cylindrical surface if it is printed in the XY fashion as if it were flat.
