[turnaround360]

Brian you know if it was wood it would be a complete pen by now

 

[Dalboy]

[Bammer]

Happened to me today ....... bit of shakey Yew

 

[woodhacker]

done that on frid with a piece of Corian but I was assembling the pen when I twisted the nib and bust a chunk off. Its now in my bits n pieces drawer with a pile of others.

 

[Penpal]

Found best not to suffer chuck it in the bin mate. Like the top half it is special, thinking now if you can re cast the bottom good one.

Yes but it would look more like a patch got a better chance with a recast.

 

[qquake2k]

Yep, it happens.

 

[turnaround360]

Bad luck there Jim.

 

[Jim]

Damn shame that Frankie, knowing the time and effort put into making these blanks ..

It looks like a nice single break, no chance of gluing the bit back on to the tube?

 

[qquake2k]

Bad luck there Jim.

Yeah, it happens with wood, too.
