Decal Pen

[Jon Lanier]

I think I got it... Yippie. My last trial pen... at least I hope. I'll be doing a little tutorial on this one. This decal will not come off with normal wear, in fact, you'd have to get a knife and purposefully try to scratch it off.

I tried to do a couple close ups so that you can see that you 'can't' see the decal line. But trust me, with the naked eye you can not see it at all.

And the source for the decals. Since they seem to be localy produced. The pen looks great.:) Bob

Bob, Jon posted some info on source in a previous decal post. I believe it was a normal hobby shop, and someone posted an online source.

Jon had made a SMC logo pen as a trial, which also looked good. Ahh, here it is: http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?t=72660&highlight=decal

Great pen Jon. Well done.

You might want to try some of this paper. You print it with your inkjet printer. Then coat it. Let it dry then just rub it off onto whatever you are going to put it on. It is the thickness of the ink and light coat of liquid you put on it to seal it. I use it to put pictures of deer and other animals on deer antler pens.
