First kitless

[jasontg99]

I have to first thank Fred (PTownsubbie) for this as this would have never happened without his help and guidance. I know there are a few issues with this pen. The cap is too short (we cut it short due to having issues with the threads). The front section is a little too thick (The cap threads are digging into the front section). Otherwise I am absolutely thrilled!!! This pen writes silky smooth. Thanks Fred!!!

I hope my first one looks that good

That painted pen and now this. You've had a huge (and hugely successful) day in the shop.

First pen looks great. Refinement will come with more experience. Keep up the good work. Look forward to seeing more in the future.

Sooner or later I'm going to get there as well Jason. Can't let you guys have all the fun! Awesome looking pen...it only gets better from here

That's a buzzkill Bruce!!! I have learned quite a bit from this pen and hope to continue improving and work my way up to your level! I forgot to mention this blank is Fred's homebrew. Thanks for all the comments so far!

Jason,well done and now with all you guys doing these component-less pens looks like Jeff might want to add a new forum.

Very nice looking pen. I guess I will have to give Fred a call and see if he wants to show me something else he has down pat.

Jason, I am impressed. You did good for the first one. Having Freds help was a benefit I'm sure. Nice work.

Well done. Can the cap be 'hogged' to make it fit better?

Scott,

I am not sure what you mean. Can you please explain "hogged".

Thanks,
Jason

Thanks for the comments everyone! Hopefully I will soon find the time to do more. I just bought a lot of ceblo from exotics. I have to practice making a few more before using the more expensive materials.
