I made the barrels for this pen by first carefully bonding vintage stamps on to brass tubes which accept component parts later in assembly. The tubes with affixed stamps were then placed in a mold with Alumilite resin and cast under 60 pounds per square inch of pressure in a specialized chamber. With hundreds of pounds of pressure acting on the mold, this step eliminated any potential bubbles in the liquid resin as it solidified. After demolding, the resin blocks cured for a few days. Once cured, the ends of the blocks were squared and then turned on my lathe for shape using traditional woodworking methods and very sharp tools.
