I received two of these Black Titanium and Platinum plating kits for Christmas. I modified this one just a shade. The original tube for the cap is a little short for the stamp. I'd have to cut the perforation off the ends to make the stamp fit. I really like to have the full stamp so I grabbed a tube from a different kit that had the same diameter but longer tube. I cut the tube down just so the full stamp would fit. There might be a slight difference in the thickness or ID because I had to ream it out a bit so the bushings would fit. The cap and clip pressed I fine but the bottom threads was pretty tight but went ok. The bottom or pen body blank was purchased from John U. a while back and I'm just now getting around to putting it all together. I also collect the Duck Stamps and this is One of my favorites and I think the colors of the stamp, feathers and platings all go together. Thanks for the help with the blank John and Questions and Comments Welcome.

That Looks Beautiful Kenny! And You did a great job with that stamp. Your extra work to make the longer replacement tube fit really paid off! ... and I agree, the colors work great together !
