Pen Guy Hard Hat 2.0

Pen Guy Hard Hat 2.0 Made from Gel Pens
I just finished the new Pen Guy Hard Hat 2.0. Now that I can bend Gel Pens with my (mind, I wish) heat gun I can do any curved surface. The corners of my bumbers need some pens, which I will get to in the next 14 days. I also have three more door panels to go.

ArtCar Fest 07 Flyer – Just in


ArtCar Fest 07 flyer is done, and this year I was given the honor of design it. As you can see I went for the tabloid look with outragous headlines. I’ve wanted to do that for many years, now I can cross that off my design to do list. Since I was doing the flyer I asked Philo Northrup, ArtCar Fest Co-Founder, if it was OK to include The Mercedes Pens Art car in it. Thank you for allowing me to plug my car:) 16 days to go.

New Fake Grass Interior in Mercedes Pens


Memorial day monday I completed the Mercedes Pens interior using AstroTurf Type Fake Grass. I Bought a nice 6×9 piece from Home Depot, and with enough hot glue and staples I lined each interior panel and the carpet with it. Took me all afternoon by I did it, and sure beats that nasty old grey dirty carpet that the car came with.


I also finished decorating my dashboard with all the nice pens. A little velcro on the back of each pen allows it to stick to the cover.

And a special thanks to Mark who not only put a link to his blog epromos blog but sent me a box of really nice Zig Zag Lite Pen. I gave them all away and then one day they will all come back, empty:)

Will It Blend? – Pens


Ever wonder what pens being blended looks like? This should you give you a pretty good idea. I wonder If I stuck my whole car in a really big blender what would happen. I hope to never find out. Got to Will it Blend for more blended products.
