Wow, after seeing that I wonder why I even bothered with the one I made. As usual you are really thinkin' outside the box!

:biggrin:Its a little plain Skip, could you inbed some Pr around the flutes or perhaps along the tap shaft. I think its missing a S/S clip also.

Picky, picky, picky. Did you even consider that the flutes/teeth make a terrific grip section? Or that PR at the top would upset the balance of the pen? And nothing sets off brass and HSS like Platinum.

May be a nice pen BUT.... when you post the cap it probably slides all the way down the lower barrel and bangs around making it hard to write with.

I think it's a poor design!

That said........... because it's a skiprat original I'll give ya $100 for it!

Hey Ken, if Skip sells me the pen, do you still need a tap and die at a good price? :biggrin:

I'm shocked!!!! :eek:

Take a look at my avatar and ask yourself........does that face look like a fibber to you???:confused: Moi???? Never!!!!:rolleyes::)

Now, I grant you that the 'fit' on the cap isn't my best so far, but I'm putting it all down to my crappy faux-tography:tongue:

Mom said go clean you room and quit wasting time with that computer.

Oh .. and about that other thing? She said you'll go blind.

Charlie, you promised not to mention that, and it was ages ago !!! So stop telling tales or I'll tell Mom what you did with the pony.

Charlie I'm over here :confused:

Skip your new pen is the mark of a very twisted mind!! but ever so cool. But me thinks thou dost prank us!!

I was completely convinced that was a photoshop.... Who would mess with a tap like that, right??? Now... Go look for the video of Skippys shop. Watch very carefully when he shows his lightbox - see whats in it.
