Please do not take this the wrong way but why are you into the graduated bends in aluminum?? I think you would be better served if all were the extreme bend. Maybe make one with the 3 bends the same and put it up for a poll. I know many times personal choice comes into play but sometimes we get an idea stuck in our heads and it is hard to shake. I believe this is one of those. This is just my opinion so as I said do as you wish and please do not take offense to what I said. Not my intention. Good luck.

That is awesome Jason. The color scheme is great and I personally love the angles of the cuts. It is just a small element that others have not done and really highlights your work.

Great work in this! Thanks for sharing.

So, you would like to see a pen with 3 chevrons with the same angles? I would happy to make you one and sell it to you. Any colors you are looking for in particular? You like the steeper angle?

No I am definetly not in the market to buy. I am a pen maker as well, as you may already know. Forget what I mentioned. It seems others like your idea anyway so please disregard. Keep up the good work. Thanks for showing.

I am definitely in the learning mode, so no worries. If I made one with just one angle, do you think the steeper angle would be best. I am no afraid to try someone else's ideas.

If you are asking my opinion then absolutely yes on the steeper angle I do not like the rounded points on the stretched ones This is what you see most with the Gisi style blanks. Again this is one man's opinion have fun.
