Made from a mobile phone circuit board. For two and a half years I have waited for a large parcel of pen blanks to come from afar off southern Australia in particular hand picked Tasmanian timbers. The courier a mutual friend of my mate rang me to tell me he had them in a large parcel (I sent the money last year) and they would be safe handed to me here soon. This pen is to say thank you with a burl pen rest in production. Pic resting on Huon Pine Burl from Tasmania. The Courier is IT and Aid to Parliament.

A very nice looking pen. I'd be interested to know how you made the blank.

Morning Roger not made by me so far I have avoided casting there are many versions out there different colours etc the first one I bought direct from the caster in the USA who pioneered these. I do like them. I take my hat off to Les in Canada who without vacuum etc makes incredible cast blanks. I have enough problems with CA without these chemicals.
