They look cool. Is there a seam? You did nice work with these.

Those look very nice, Patterson.
Those would be cool on the Wild Card pen kit from PSI. And Wood Pen Pro has the card suits on the trim ring - the Poker pen kit. http://www.woodpenpro.com/pen_kits/0022_pacifica_poker_2-tone1.html

Thanks for all the kind words everyone! The more I play around with casting, the more stuff I see to try and put on a pen!!!

Thanks Roy! It's really not that noticeable. You'd have to know what you're looking for. These are well done. :wink:

I've been wanting to, but I haven't had the funds to get any of the kits. I'll get to it soon enough.

Nice addition to the front page :biggrin:
We don't often feature groups of pens, but I couldn't resist these.

These are excellent! How did you bend the card around the tube without creasing it?

Man!! This is such an honor!! Thank you everyone, and I don't mind it when rules are bent a little every now and then.....

The cards don't crease because I delaminate them, half the thickness bends very well!

nice
The seam would be the only issue for me. is there a way you can cut the seam on line? Another idea would be to put another card over the seam to hide it. hard to explain here, but in my head you would cut out the heart shapes from another card and cover over the seam making it look seamless.
I suppose though, that is why we add clips, to hide the hide-able.

Nothing...a miracle you can get it as good as it is. In time your talent will get even better.
Are you doing the full thickness or peeling the back off before affixing it to the tube?

splitting the cards. Makes them bend easier!

Very nice job! I don't think I could ever get the seam that perfect. It's also amazing that with the stiffness of playing cards that you could glue it so well.

Don't know about the "just" but these are made from commercially sold playing cards.

Great Blanks, and Pens, Patterson.
Brilliant Concept, Expertly Executed.
With Over 50 "Blanks", to each Coloured Deck, That is a lot for Stock, you shouldn't run out too soon.
Excellent Hiding of the Seam, Great Fit and Finish.
Fantastic.
Congratulations,
Brian.

What a terrific and creative idea!!! Bet there are many stores in Casinos that would love to have a selection of gambling related hand crafted items like that to display and sell. You might have a cash cow munching in the pasture.
