Solid Ebonite(Diamond) Pen Rest has been developed.
20mm solid ebonite rod was used (Japanese ebonite)
overall shape is a continuous arc, with faceted surface.
below photo shows penrest in freshly machined state.
polishing process will be applied, for production models.
I tried to apply polishing process,
however, the result was even worse than freshly machined state.
also the polishing process destroyed "machined" look & feel.
therefore I concluded, fresh and precise machined state is better for this application.
product features:
1. 100% precision machined from 20mm solid ebonite rod (japanese ebonite)
2. precise flat area machined so it will not wobble.
3. precise facet machining for unique appearance / reflection.
4. a fresh, precise machined look all around
(to keep the "machined look & feel", polishing process cannot be applied. therefore, the utmost precise machining & care are required and no mistakes are allowed).
5. optimized pen-resting design that accepts various size of pens, through research.
(Max pen diameter 25mm)
