Jade Emp/Custom Finals

[Dalepenkala]

Hello everyone! Well I made this pen over the weekend with intentions of posting on my website. Its a full size emp in rhd/bt fountain pen. The Imperial Jade Tru-Stone barrels turned out absolutely gorgeous! I made custom finals for this pen on both cap and pen barrels. Got to start taking pix's of the pen and I'm still trying to figure out how the hell I missed it but there is an extremely small nick on the pocket clip! When I seen this I was P_ _ _ _ _! Anyway enough about that.

Comments Good & Bad are welcome.

Thanks for looking!

Got any jade left? Maybe a small round piece? You could take a Dremel and make a spot the same size as the round piece and glue it in....just another customization!


The finials look awesome!

Beautiful Pen, Dale.
Glorious Blank, and Fantastic Hardware.
Superb Fit and Finish.
About the nick or dent on the Pocket Clip, If you have a piece of the Imperial Jade Tru-Stone is it possible to make and Glue a small Cabochon, onto the clip?
Just a thought,
Congratulations,
Brian.

I like the pen.. I also like the ideas. That actually looks like the PERFECT spot to put just a hint of the Jade

Beautiful pen Dale. Since this will be a "second" what kind of discount are you offering, or I could take it off your hands, never to be seen again, just to save your reputation in the pen turning world. I would add a spot of Jade also. Jim S

Thank you very much for the compliments guys! Much appreciated! Ya I have thought about doing some sort of coverup but not sure if I want to do that yet.

The finials were a good call. Really works well with the jade/emperor feel.

Wow, it looks great. I'm wondering when I can finally get a start on making my own pen and make it look as nice as this. I like your pen's style and color.

Well I decided to fix my nick in the pocket clip on this Emperor! I took a jewel cap off a balance wheel/hairspring assembly and epoxied it over the nick that was on the pocket clip. I'm very happy with the result!

 

[wyone]

that looks PERFECT!

 

[Jim15]
