Is that gold glitter?
Nice job

Nice pen, and nice design. I like the upper barrel size and shape. Did you have to do any modification on the clip to make fit?

Just had to bend the clip a tad...not much at all...probably could of got away without bending it.

This could help.
For years, I have made a design on the slimline that "can't work" because the clip can't sit right.
Well, below is the secret. Take your dremel and put a grinding bit on it, grind the back (away from the clip end) out a bit and, voila!! you can get a half inch top and the clip will still hold the pen in your pocket, using the standard "fancy" clip. Follow the "Red line" path on the picture!! (old dog learned new trick)
Now, just buy all your slimlines from exotics:wink::wink:, they will work.:biggrin::biggrin:

Oh.. That would be REALLY dangerous. I spend too much time gabbing when I drive down. If I could walk over, that would be really bad.
I'm happy I can drive there once in a while

Very nice pen (and blank) but I thought everyone in Wisconsin was a Packer fan, except for those who may have transferred their allegiance to Minnesota.....

Thats okay Mr Lewis will get knocked around on Monday night football......and the packers will make sure theres no "glitter" on his uni:biggrin:
That is a great looking pen. I really like the shape of it, very nice. Is it black titanium/chrome?
OMG......if I lived close enough to walk to Exotic Blanks (www.exoticblanks.com ), I would be flat a$$ broke/poor/bankrupt, I swear. I live right in the middle of CSUSA, MacBeth Hardwoods and Woodcraft. I have absolutely NO WILLPOWER, I am weak! I go in for one item and come out with 10. Imagine living close enough to Exotic Blanks.
Thank God they never advertise (www.exoticblanks.com ) , it would be even worse *W*.
Now, what was the name of that web site that sells those awesome blanks? I think it was www.exoticblanks.com but I might be wrong.
Cheers
Go Pats!
