Casting Polyester Resin Pen Blanks

[Jim]

While we have a few members interested in casting of late i thought i would show the other moulds i use when casting .. With the big square one i use i can get 5 good sized pen blanks and one good for a streamline/slimline, compared to just four from these moulds ..

I really think I should get a sample of each blank you produce Jim, strictly for Quality Control checks of course ....

These were bought Greg ..

Guess my next logical question which I should have put above is: do you recall where from?

Must be very stable material Jim eye make up and nail art customers are real fussy it has to be top notch.

Proof is in your beautiful blanks mate.

I have often thought why not block cast especially if you want to make more than one alike, good planning Jim. The ones you show using 4 up allow individual special effects more readily.

I got one of the moulds from a guy on here who sold up his gear,which is the same as the one i bought from here .. If you make a searc somewhere on here the guy joined the forums after i had made a thread complaining about his postal charges .. Turned out they were slightly better than the cart on his webby calculated ..
