Marlas feathers kitless aluminum

[Dalecamino]

I had another feather blank made by Marla, sold at Indy-Pen-Dance. I thought I'd put a little extra aluminum piece on the end of the body and, make it bright. There are actually two pieces. One would have been just too easy. Used the 12mm triple start on the cap. The clip is Nickel Tear Drop from Elliot Landes and, is a Mont Blanc style. These blanks turn and polish very nicely. The blank has a tube for a Zen kit in it. Having lots of fun with this metal lathe. My thanks to Marla, Mike and Linda. Thanks for looking.

Chuck if you are flexible enough, give yourself a pat on the back.

Chuck that really looks great. Now you need to learn how to anodize your aluminum to give you even more varience. Oh and when are you gonna start making your own clips? If you get to that point the only thing you will need to buy is a refill and spring. But wait, I bet you could learn to coil your own springs too.

I had better watch it. I am either getting myself in trouble or you in trouble. :biggrin:

Spectacular... For those who aren't in the area, these pens are even better in person. Great pen Chuck, love the aluminum extension. Keep up the good work, you are getting pretty good these days!

Thanks Mike. Hang around here for a couple of weeks and, you'll see some of this anodizing you speek of.:wink: As for making my own clips.....haven't gotten THAT far YET but, I am thinking. SPRINGS?? Not until I've used up ALL of Susannes kitchen sponge :biggrin:
