    Holo Glitter

    I got this idea after watching a Zac Higgins video. The pen is a Concava in black enamel with black holographic glitter cast in clear polyester resin. The tubes were painted black and the castings were tube-in.

    Glass clear resin

    Hi, I was wondering if anyone had any opinions on the best/cheapest glass clear resin for pen blank making. I've been using GlassCast 50 Epoxy resin from Easy Composites which works well, has no smell but is quite expensive. Cheers...Neil
