Elegant Beauty vers.3.0

[ldb2000]

Hi Everybody
After all the hoopla about the Elegant Beauty name , I was thinking that if Berea can design a version of a pen but use different mechanicals inside and call it an Elegant Beauty , why can't I .
It was made from 2 7mm slimline tubes , a slimline transmission , a clip from Elliot and some homebrew PR .
It functions just like the original EB that Aaron sells , you twist the finial to extend the refill .
It is a blast making one of these kinda kitless slimlines , they look cool , are a little thicker then a slimline and best of all ... It's all mine ! ....errr ... well ... kinda :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:
Hope you like it .

Sorry Aaron I just couldn't help myself . :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

Comments as always are welcome

That's friggin cool! It's got a little too much head and the ball of the clip is a little too..... bally... but other than that I love it!

Thank You

Thank you everyone for the kind words .
Skye thank you for the compliment and as for the Finial I made it larger because you have to grip it to turn it (it's a finial activated pen) .
As for the Ball clip , I like them , they look different and they work great .
Larry , I'll bet you could do one , check out this thread and give it a try , http://www.penturners.org/forum/showthread.php?t=36046
And again to everyone
Thank You

Cool pen. I really like the blank.

Butch, great idea, I guess some people think that all we are supposed to do is make B2B slimlines and not try anything different,
Great Idea with the finial twist, did you put some type liner in at the very tip of the nib end for the refill to pass through?? I love seeing different different things done with slimlines, it shows what we are supposed to be about, (creating something different and new) :biggrin: :biggrin:

verynicework!

I think it looks great, although I'm on board with the top of the pen being too much above the clip. The ball on the clip is great, matches the ball some people put in their chin!

 

[papaturner]

AWESOME!

 

[cowjelly]

That's a sharp looking pen!

 

[mobrackett]

Excellant looking pen!! Great Job!!
