This pen is my first with M14 threads and my second with a clip.

I really wanted the section to be made from the same material as the rest of the pen. The section tenon broke. So, I drilled a 10mm through hole and glued in a slave from acrylic acetate. Success.
Enjoy and comments welcome.

Looks really good!! Nice save on the section. Perfect fit on the clip. Is that portion threaded also? What size?
The clip attachment started out for the finial to screw into the cap that did not work out. The threads were to be M10x1 which I've used once before.

The finial ended with a non threaded tenon glued in place with epoxy. I decided to make the clip ring visible.

Thanks for the comments.

Thanks. The blank appeared to be a solid color but that changed quickly. There is another row of the figure opposite the one that shows. I was delighted to save the section.
