Well you have gone and done it now. Now you will want to cut everything in half and glue it back together. Welcome to never seeing a piece of that wouldn't look good with a little piece of that(where is that piece I saved) in it

It's a great idea and, I like segmented pens. My personal taste is to have brass or aluminum between the two main bodies. Or, even plastic(credit card) or Pick guard. Anything to divide that joint. You done good though. Thanks for sharing with us.

Nice pen! If you are looking for a divider material the PVC from an old garage door, or ABS flashing works good. I did some experiments with other types like from plastic coffee cans but I have found that the food contact side has some kind of funky coating that prevents CA from sticking and its dang near impossible to get it off. Segmenting is really fun when you get to go through your bits and pieces and use and otherwise useless scrap.
Yea I plan to try different material to see what I can come up with
