Hi everybody.
Today i finished a new pen and i wanted to get a bit slimmer with my pen design.
I think i really like the shape of this one.
The wine-red acrylic finials contrast just fine with the ivory-coloured JUMA.
It does post, but not very good. I should have done the barrel a bit thinner to post fine.
Now there´s the danger of ruining the threads inside the cap if you push the cap onto the barrel. Still learning...
The fountain pen holds a gold plated #5 Bock medium steel nib and is fitted with a Schmidt converter.
Barrel and cap are tappered with a smooth transition from barrel to cap.
The end of the cap is the point with the biggest diameter and the end of the barrel the smallest diameter.
Again the photos do not have the best quality, a bit on the dark side esp. the wine-red colour of the finials... sorry for that.


Thanks for looking.
Comments and critics are welcome.

best regards

Gerrit

That looks good. What is JUMA?

Hi Mike,

JUMA is a resin/mineral mix. It is manufactured in Germany and mainly used for pool billiard cues.
It turnes nice and takes threads very good.
Take a look:
