Trying to take that next step in my pen turning game. I don't know if you could call this truely kitless bc I used ancient parts from pens I used in highschool. I don't have the means to make my own nibs and internal parts, but I think I had to think outside the box to make this pen work. It takes a parker refill and I used an extender from a sierra click kit but had to shorten it a little to make it all fit nicely. It's a double closed end with a snap cap and hidden clip. I chose the design of the pen to flow with the boxy nib section. I had to use every single 1/8" of the blank to have enough room for everything (All thats missing is from the kerf of my bandsaw blade). The blank is a Sodalite trustone that I MM to 12000, Buffed with Tripoli and White Diamond, and polished with PlastX. I really enjoyed the challenges of making this pen. I also have to give a big thank you to Hans for doing his hidden clip demo this past Sat. I used alot of what he taught to make this clip work. Thanks for looking and any comments/critiques/questions welcomed and appreciated!:biggrin:
