Hooded nib piston filler

[Twissy]

A commission finished yesterday. This one was a bit tough! The piston mech is designed to take a 6mm JoWo nib unit, but the customer wanted a hooded section using his gold Swan nib. To achieve this I drilled and tapped the inside of a JoWo 6mm feed carrier....not an easy feat...and ended up with the required threaded collar.
Acrylic from Timberbits, and 14mm cap threads.
Cheers for looking!
