Here is a pen I finished up, which was an order for a friend. The oak is from a 100+ year old barn, and is sentimental to my friend, as he was involved in a service project where he helped demolish the remaining barn structure, and built a new building (I think some type of community outreach associated with his church). He supplied me with a Bock titanium nib, and I made the clip from titanium, which I sandblasted to match the nib. For the liner of the cap and barrel, cap threads, finial, and grip, I poured a dark gray alumilite. I also made a little pen rest from the wood. Both the wood and pen rest are finished with oil, as my friend wanted a more natural look.
The pen is about 1/2 diameter at the cap threads, and approximately 5.25" capped.
