Custom in Mac Nut

[MikeL]

Had a request to make a clipless fountain pen in macadamia nut. The closed size is 140mm. Cap is 15.7mm OD at widest point, tapers to 13.5. Barrell is 13.7mm OD at widest point, tapers to 12.3mm. It has a #6 jowo. I used the 10X.75 double lead purchased in the group by for the section tenon and barrell insert. The cap and barrell are triple 12x.75. Any comments are welcomed. Thanks

I would say you did a great job on making your customer happy!
What material did you use for the finials and section?

Beautiful pen and I really like the custom design inserts in the ends.

Fantastic pen, very well done.

Definitely first rate work. The kind of pen that should send your customer diligently searching for a journal worthy of its application. Next thing you know, the periwig...

I appreciate the comments.

I should have included an uncapped pic. Thanks for all the comments. Although I've made about six of these pens now, it seems it still takes as many hours as the first one.

Great details on the pen. That deserves to be a front page forum photo.

Outstanding looking pen.

Some pens just look "spot on", and this one definitely qualifies.

I love the details too, the brass inserts in the ends really give it that extra touch of class.
