Finally, I am taking time to post this pen. I finished this one in time for MAPG 2014 .
It started as a gold Atrax Rollerball. It sort of got modified along the way. The green blank material is Jonathon's Combustion blank paired with black acrylic and some brass rod and flat brass stock.
As I said, it started as a roller ball. It is drilled and sized for the rollerball refill and spring but last minute, I realized I could swap it out to a fountain pen.
I added the 1/16" brass rod to both ends as well as 4 rod dots on both cap and barrel. As you can see, I ditched the stock finial for the black acrylic. The entire pen is finished with CA as I didn't want the brass to tarnish nor feel the intersection of the brass/acrylic.
Comments welcome!
