I've got a friend who is a hair stylist (and is quite a wild woman in all respects) and I'm betting she would love a pen with real human hair wound around a tube and cast in acrylic. Or a pen blank just packed with hair. You're never gonna see THAT pen anywhere else, are you? :biggrin:

How about saving up fingernail and toenail clippings and casting them and giving someone a gross-out pen as a gift? :eek:

My biggest concern is the smell on the lathe as these bodily cast-offs are cut. That would stink to high heaven.

What is the weirdest thing you've thought up and wish someone would cast in a pen blank?

this has been done for the bash ugly pen contest
 
outside of being creepy.... perhaps this would be an idea for a "Baby's first haircut"
just a thought.
Done only in clear with a white tube.
