I thought I would post my latest pens which also happen to be kitless.

The last one (green) is my first kitless that I posted before but I changed the section two times. I started out with a black ebonite section but was not happy with the look. I went to an aluminum section but didn't like the metal rubbing off on my fingers. So I ended up making the section out of the same acrylic I used for the accent rings and I like the look much better. This pen has a 6mm Bock medium nib.

The red pen is actually my latest and I used the tutorial on adding rings to put two more narrow rings on the cap. The black accents are acrylic but the section is Delrin. It has a 5mm Bock fine point nib.

The beige pen is a knockoff of someone's pen I saw on IAP and loved it. I has a 6 mm Bock medium nib.

I have learned a lot more about pens since I started doing kitless. Hope you like them. But let me know what you honestly think.

I first noticed the beige blank but looking at the others I think they are all great. I like the lines and the fact that you set the different pieces apart with different colors which in my eyes breaks things up just enough. Very nice when I start making kitless I hope they look 1/2 that good.

Sorry to bring this old thread back, but I'm trying to figure out how to add the rings the the cap. OP mentioned a tutorial, but I found no such tutorial in the Library. Does anyone have a link they could share or talk me through it?

I can't post a link with this tablet but, it's in the TECHIQUES drop down in the upper lefthand corner. ADDING BANDS TO YOUR CAPS. Have fun!
