Here's my latest homecast brew that is made from corrugated honeycomb packing material used extensively for protecting goods from being damaged in transit. It makes for an interesting pattern when turned. What say you?

The casting part looks great and the fit and the finish on the kit are great but the blank does nothing for me. It is too random. Not enough design or blend to make it stand out. Just an opinion.
 
Nice idea Peter. Well executed and one great original idea. I have some real honeycomb Im hoping to try that wish soon. I like it.
 
My thoughts are you made a unique pen, which could be double cast or cut on different angles to get the different styles or looks well done great looking pen, it also does spark off a lot ideas.:rolleyes::biggrin:
 
very cool! Does the cardboard feel any softer than the rest of the blank or has the resin saturated it enough?

Great look!

Once the PR (Silmar 41) hardens then it solidifies and saturates the cardboard so that it makes it easy to turn. A few drops of CA along the seams also assists in bonding the two together.
