Nickel Plated .30-06 Pens

[HandyDan]

When making bullet shell pens from the Zebra F-301 pens I sand off the nickel plating from the clicker and the nib.  The other day I came across a DIY video on nickel plating brass and the old light bulb came on.  It is an amazingly easy process and here are the results.

 

 

Here is a picture with a brass pen for contrast.

 

 

Here is the video I followed the instructions from and it worked as described.  I think this is just too cool for school.

Dan that is so out there . Figures you would find something like this. I really like the new look seems to spark it up somewhat.
