Celebration Cebloplast custom fountain

[Carl Fisher]

Finished this one up tonight. First pen with the new M12 double start from the group buy and I must say I like the change. More thread, less twisting.

M12x.8 cap to body threads
M10x1 front section
M8x.75 cap finial threads

I made the cap with a removable finial in case a new owner wants a clip I'd just have to cut the groove to recess it.

Love working with this material.

Nice pen. How were the doubles to work with?

 

[Carl Fisher]

The doubles are very nice. I only used the bottoming tap since there is a touch of taper to start it out and the die cuts nicely as well. The fit is great and overall feels much better than the 12x.75 single I had been using. Previously I had to keep the thread section short to not have a mile of turning and it never felt very secure. These are just right.

Removable finial? Can't see a seam at all. Very nice.

Dead solid perfect Carl. Colors are beautiful and timely!! That stuff is hard to work on a regular pen.

Thanks guys. I love working vintage material. I turn this at about half the speed of other acrylics to keep the heat down.
