I was ask by someone I know from Texas to do a snakeskin pen to match his hat. So after several emails I found a good set to use and that came from Don Ward.
Final shot:
Here is some in production.
Unprocessed tubes.
Trimming adapter that I made to go with the end mill. Problem is the tube size is not the same as the end mill size, so being a PEN TURNER that I am I said ok slimline tube and cut to size for the upper and lower tube. Game over.
TBC setup on my jet lathe
After finished we went with a gent rollerball. Lets look at some of the serious beauty going on here.
Here is some hidden beauty.
On now here is the eye candy shots.
During production of this pen the person was deployed overseas to Afghanistan. So I packed it up and mailed it out to him. About 2-3 months later it arrived. Sadly I could not get it to him before then. I did not have much time with the pen to really show the details that I wanted so what shots I did get is here. Next one I hope to have better quality images.
