Very impressive work there Jeff. Is the clip on this one soldered on? If so, did you do it before doing the resin finial or after?

Very impressive work there Jeff. Is the clip on this one soldered on? If so, did you do it before doing the resin finial or after?

yes, the clip is soldered on. Everything is sanded and polished and then I taped around the top to form a damn and poured inlace with the leaf glued inside. Once cured, I cut it with the scrollsaw to remove most of the excess and then used a belt sander to come back down to the angled metal. CA applied by hand to the resin/leaf and hand sanded then buffed. You know..it takes time.

Ditto what Roy said - you've come a long way in the journey.

Very impressive Jeff . Is the clip butt soldered on to the finial cap or did you recess it for strength ? I really like the inset finial tassies , they would make a great makers mark for all your future pens .

Absolutely stunning Jeff!!

The clip is just soldered on and it is profiled on the back where it attaches. It works, but is more for looks than function.
