The second pen of the day brings an anodised black aluminium fine writing instrument with brass accents, featuring delicate ribbing throughout it's tapered entirety. Featuring a medium JoWo two tone gold nib, to accompany the brass section.

Brad, I'm loving all of your brass and aluminum pens! How does the anodizing hold up over time?

Table nearly full :biggrin: four more pens to go. Bottle of scotch after this!

Brad, I'm loving all of your brass and aluminum pens! How does the anodizing hold up over time?

Extremely well. to copy and paste from a website:

Anodizing is perhaps the most commonly specified finish for aluminum machined parts. Advantages of Anodizing include:

1.) A very thin coating (.0002-.0012" for Type II) compared to paints and powder coat. Coating thickness can often be ignored for machined parts.

2.) Extremely durable, hard, abrasion resistant and long lasting. Coating does not peel or chip. Much, much harder surface than paint (harder than tool steel). Coating lasts indefinitely.

3.) Some types (my pens!) have colors which are fade resistant in sunlight nearly indefinitely.

4.) Excellent corrosion protection. Withstands salt-spray and other tests extremely well.

5.) Environmentally friendly finish. Can be readily recycled. Production involves simple inorganic chemicals which have minimal environmental impact

6.) Good electrical insulator. Combined with other coatings can be used for selective masking of low-voltage currents.

7.) Inexpensive. Very price competitive with painting and powder coating.

How were you able to get your hands on the brass plate with your name that is found inside the presentation box??

I cannot tell you how impressed it is to see a complete package.
