    I just made some nice pens from some of the broken racket.

    You can do the same too.

    Your jig saves a lot of money compared to using a professional carbon shaft cutter such as these:

    well, we are making pens here. precise perfect cut is not necessary. although i'd think using a dremel instead of a handsaw would create very close result.

    I'd be very interested in a video of the reverse process: turning pens into badminton rackets.

    Wow, those are some pretty illustrious pens! NS 8000? MP 100?
    Nice way to preserve broken treasures.

    Okay, maybe the artists can do something similar with badminton racquet shafts like the artist in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJdtnPFZ-Rg

    A Z-Slash pen would be boss - I thought that "Laser Yellow" was GBH of the optic nerve when I first saw it, but it's really grown on me.
