Eric, Great work on this one!! Really like all the different elements! This one is Spot on!!
I get in trouble whenever I comment on this type of a pen. So, what's new?
IMHO, a pen like that is a demonstration of the high level of craftsmanship of the builder. It stands as an example of what can be done with imagination, skill and patience.
OTOH, I think it is super ugly. Clownish and way-way too busy. Nothing pretty or elegant about it at all.
So Frank, how do you really feel about this pen?:biggrin:I get in trouble whenever I comment on this type of a pen. So, what's new?

Eric, as far as I'm concerned, permission granted. Would like to see the model.The various elements might seem odd -they do to me, but "odd" fit the tastes of the first person I made one for, and it is modeled on one of the Gisi pens I saw a while back. If I can get permission, I'll post a picture of that far better pen on which this one was based.
Well shoot, thought you were being humble in your post!:redface: Hopefully, they will permit!I'd have to get permission from one of the Gisis.
So Frank, how do you really feel about this pen?:biggrin:
