1st kitless

[dpstudios]

While nothing to write home about, it is my first attempt at kitless pens. Many mistakes made, much learned. Basic black ebonite with a Schmidt Rollig Writer nib. Clip donated from a kit. finished with Dr, Kirks polish. Thanks for looking.

Not bad. What are your thoughts on turning and polishing ebonite?

Looks good to me.

Looks pretty good to me. Getting that first one done is a real accomplishment.

Very nice! Tell us about the mistakes and what you learned if you're up to the task.

Looks great. I have only done three and haven't braved doing a clip yet.

Dan, great pen! Wish my first looked so good. I really like the way you installed the clip to hide the ring.
There is great satisfaction in making kitless pens but many hours of work. I look forward to seeing more of your work.
