That really does look great. For your design, is there a way the pin that retains the clip could come in from the bottom? It would be slick if it could and the pin would be hidden.
The only down side is the clip is going to leave a wear mark in fast time on the upper body.

That is truley amazing. I've seen a bit on here about kitless pens but I never really understood how someone goes about doing it. Amazing pen and thanks for the insight into how you did it.
