This is a fountain pen I made over the weekend. It's made from some translucent green/silver flake alumilite I poured. The bands and clip are made from 304 stainless steel. I'm pretty jazzed about how this turned out. I had been kicking around the idea for it for a while, but hadn't gotten a chance to try it. The pen is about 5.25" long when capped, and has 14mm diameter cap threads. It's the perfect size to me, and just barely fits a full size converter in it. The nib is a jowo #6

Awesome wouldn't describe it. Outstanding!
Thanks!
So cool, Love the blank.
Thanks! I was quite happy with how this blank turned out.
Very nice!
Thanks!
You do know there is a kitless contest going on right now??? Hope you have another one to enter.
Yeah, I had already shared it previously on social media so I could get it sold, so it would have been disqualified from the contests anyway. Besides, I'm a firm believer in consistently contributing to the content here rather than coming out of the woodwork for the contests.
That is a beauty!
Thanks tony!

Hi sir. This is a lovely pen. Could you tell me how you have done the trapezoidal threads? Did you use a tap and die set? Thanks
