I've made a few Majestic Jrs (Rollerball, not Fountain).
I like the size of the pen, and the fact that the cap posts.
I do find a few dislikes:
(1) I think it's overly ornate. I want to show off the wood, not the fancy band or cap finial.
(2) I think it's unbalanced when the cap is posted. The cap is heavy relative to the pen body, so I think the pen writes better with the cap off, rather than with the cap posted. Probably not an issue if the user only uses the pen to sign documents, but definitely an issue if the user wants to write the next great novel by longhand...
Any suggestions as to what I might like to try? Initial preference for items that use similar drill/bushing combos, but I'm open-minded.
Thanks!
