At the York Auction my old mate Jim gave me one of his cast blanks he had just made and asked me to make a pen and let him know what I thought of the blank.
I have to say the blank cut superbly and polished up really well and I am really pleased with the result.
The kit is the chrome Zeta and I think the other half of the blank will go on an Epsilon.

You're not just a pretty face Jim !!!!:thumbs:

Lovely pen, well finished.

Even nicer blank - loving the colours.

I wonder how Dan feels about the LUFC colours looking so magnificent on his pen kits?? ;)
