cases

Hi All, As you know I like a bullet case pen or two.... Good sellers for me:thumbs: So we have 2x. 338 Lapua magnum cases being used These were made on my wood lathe with a 4 jaw chuck... Make sure the cases are 'fired' chuck one up and drill the back (primer end) to take an Omega body tube...

Hi all, One happy bunny..... My gunsmith friend asked if I was still working in the same place... Yes?? Then I have this turn up.... Wow!! That's some very nice walnut oh and some. 375 cases....

Started making another bullet bowl this morning 9” x 2” sycamore and 42 7.62 cut down cases just waiting for the resin to cure now

I really like makeing these, the difficulty is in getting the case's. I tube up two blanks and turn to fit inside the cases, groove and glue in, trim square and fit the kit. These are .500 nitro express cases, but I have now also .600 & .700 cases seriously big cases

Hi, Guys, I have just prepped 120 .338 Lapua magnum brass cases. I would like to make a couple of pens from some of the cases I have bullets for them. I know some of you do this could you advise me on the best way to turn them into pens.

Hi all, following Peter's .475 Nitro case pen, here is a .500 Nitro case pen......made with an Omega kit I turn both sections, cap and barrel to fit inside the cases( both stop end turned) then turn glue grooves and fix in place. A quick polish and lacquer done!! These are both once fired Eley...

I recently commented on a thread saying I would like to see a bullet pen being made and put together. Within a few days I had 4 cases, 3 bullets and two slimline kits sitting on my doormat to try out and nothing was wanted in exchange. I am blown away by the generosity of forum member Mark...

Hi all, well I have done a few more bullet case pens...... These are .30 06 and fitted with new bullets, drilled to take a slimline refill. These are very long cases so a bit of thought had to go into these to allow the transmission to sit further in, the caps were a lot easier......I still have...

This is number 5 of 6 RAF centenary pens made with 338 spent bullet cases

Just wondering if any one has made a .50 Cal Bottle Opener. I would like to know what angle and how deep do you cut the slot into the case? .50 Cal cases are too hard to get here , to stuff one up in trial and error.:goesred:

A while back Mark sent m a couple of .500 nitro express cases. I was thinking about making a pen for a mate who has a great collection of big game hunting books ( I have told him to leave them to me in his will.) After thinking about it for a while I thought the silly bugger will only lose it...

Am I still turning pens!!..... My latest delivery in the post, yet more big calibre cases......I am getting quite a collection now:whistling:

Hi all well I like a good challenge....I was contacted by Ray7756 as to my bullet pens....could a pen be made from .22 250 cases??..... Challenge accepted!! He sent me a couple of cases to try and the results are below.... Normally with the .308 cases it's very straight forward as they will...

Hi all.....some may know i have a couple of weakneses........Mik lawrence blanks....Toni randsfield blanks and bullet pens.....not nessaseraly in that order..... Well thanks to Les i found some bullet heads for my .500NE cases (£4 each!!)and after a quick chat scored these....yet more cases.....

Well i did my bit of sticking and reaming and the results are below....not really pen turning but....i now know how these were made and have already thought how to improve/modify my own.....i have sourced the bullet heads and cases in the UK so.....watch this space BTW i am stocking these in a...

Hi all.....i had to finally make myself one of these....i have made a few and they have all sold quickly.....so this is my last pair of cases currently ( proberbly struggle to get more). An Omega kit fitted with two 'once fired' .500 nitro express cases.

Anyone know where I can get white or grey velvet style pen cases. I have no problem sourcing the black velvet style ones but white/grey ones seem to be like hens teeth.

In the recent pricing thread I commented on the subject of people who come up to you at sales venues and say something like "I (or my grandad) could make one of those for half the price you are charging. In many cases they probably could, I know many grandads who are better turners than me. I...

Hi all i went to see a gunsmithing friend today...managed to grab a few empty cases and a nice bit of walnut:thumbs:

Made these up this morning for our veterans with real bullet cases now I'm off to the pub it's to bloody hot
