Very nice looking pen indeed. What kind is it? Twist or?

If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

Very very good job in casting the pheasant feather blank. It looks great and the profile of the finished pen looks excellent. Good job!

Seven days without turning makes one weak.

Thanks guys. Now I just wish I could repeat it better. Not sure what the problems are but it seems everytime is something different. 
Uhoh I dont have much experience with casting so I think it may be temperature related to a certain extent. Thinking I will try a different resin too. Using poly resin currently but may pick up some Alumilite to try.
