Cap Redo

[propencity]

This was a kitless pen I posted a couple of weeks back and really wasn't too happy with the way the cap turned out (too thin and translucent and finial fit was off). So I redid the cap and finial today and I think it's a bit better. Here are before and after. Thanks for looking.

Before (cap was down to 1/2" diameter) :

After (cap is now at about 9/16" diameter and finial diameter is more in line with the cap)):

I like the new cap much better, particularly the finial. Nice job

Nice job, Mark. If I may ask, where'd you find that blank?

Dow,

It's called Mochachino. Got it at a local Woodcraft store and I'm sure it can also be ordered thru their website.

Thanks Mark. I'll look for it next time in the store.
