Help needed: Music pen

[Robert]

I've got a 50th birthday coming up for a friend, he's a musician, saxophonist.

Does anyone know of any music blanks, or kits I can buy? Ideally would like a nice blank with notes that I could make a slimline from. I've seen the music kit on Axminster, but it doesn't look that attractive.

You could try the Kallenshan inlay kit

Now there is a direct answer of impact.

I vaguely remember seeing a lazer cut pen blank with a saxophone oh it, proberly Kallenshan.
Some one may be able to cast a blank with a picture you want on it.

You can get treble clef clips for slimline/streamlines but they look a bit cheap and nasty imo.

This is what I’m edging towards. I may have a go myself. Are there some tutorials or threads on how to do this?

Talk to musos,they have a handle on these things musical. Should provide you with food for thought. Laser pics on boxes work for me.

Hi Robert

I would favour encapsulating some sheet music or something similar.

Yep, I'm with Steve. Get an extract of "Just Friends" and cast it into a tube or have someone do it for you.

One of the Axminster kits perhaps ? I made this one early in the year. OOps just noticed you are not a fan of said kits :)
