The process of creating a Steampen pen do it yourself.

And so, first of all, the author begins to make a blank for the cap from epoxy, for which he takes a container (plastic cup) and adds resin to it, then he puts the pigment in color and mixes everything up to a homogeneous mass. After he takes another same glass and performs the same actions with only another black pigment. Further, the contents of the cups are poured smoothly and without sudden movements into a pre-prepared form (plastic syringe) and then left for a day in complete rest until the epoxy is completely dry.
Now we will consider the whole process clearly, in all the details and details.

Here is the coloring pigment that the author used.Epoxy is poured into a cup.Pigment is added and mixed until smooth.As mentioned above, 2 resin compositions of different colors were prepared, and they are poured into one form (plastic syringe).Further, the forms remain at rest for 24 hours until the resin completely hardens.After which the contents are naturally extracted.And actually what beauty turned out to be the process of the work done.These colors represent space and our star galaxy. Then the master proceeds to processing the obtained blanks on a lathe, for which purpose the future component of the handle should be wrapped with protective material so as not to scratch during processing.A hole will be drilled.Cap top.It is polished.Here's what happened.Fitting.The top stylized as "surface of the moon"
Pen holder.The handle body is stylized as a flying rocket.Making the base of the pen.The top crowns the rocket itself.And by tradition, among the masters, control photographs of the finished product were made.Here is such a beautiful and unique handmade pen made by our author, which in our time is quite relevant, and is valued pretty well.
