It almost seems like it was made using in injection mold. Nice work. Tell me about your finish.

I would have liked a bit better coloration blend. It might be that you'd didn't mix the resin quite enough to get the blob of color in the middle.

Definitely "outside the box" thinking. A++ on originality. The blank used here harmonizes with the hardware very well. BTW, is that a Brooks blank?

Well that pen would be awesome for me cause I have a bad habit of chewing on pens. That's the problem with all the pens I make...I can't chew on them....maybe that guy making the scented pens is onto something...lol.

And the Cheap Chinese knockoffs have already hit the stores..... They couldn't even get the color right.

To fat in the middle, to skinny on the ends, The length is wrong, the clip and the cap are to short. The front section is to straight and the colors clash. Do it over!

I prefer the lines of a more classic looking pen.
Your work is really shotty at best.. I have seen better products from mainland China

Nice pen! But why should I buy yours when the bank, grocery store, my barber, the oil change place will all GIVE me their upgraded version with their phone numbers imprinted.
With their pens, all I have to do is pick the one I want from the free pen jar (compliments of the pizza delivery place) when I need to call them. It saves me the expense of a 411 call.
What does your pen do? Seems kinda pricey to me

I would be embarrassed to be seen using that one (or any of its millions of copies). Otherwise, nice job.

Nope, I don't like it. Don't know why, don't care, just don't like it.
Oh, and the lighting is bad too.:wink:

I don't really care for that much bulge in the middle, but if you like it, that's all that matters.
Great Googly Moogly

why does it say "made in china" on it? That's pretty cool how you did that.

Don't care for the nib section at all, why the two bumps,, I'll bet the cap will scratch when posted, can't you make treads? It sure as hell looks like turquoise, what a waste of a good blank, it has absolutly no style, couldn't you have at least pinched the waist? Other than all that I simply love it!!

What size bit does it use? And the bushings, where did you get them?
TerryDowning

That's funny, I was thinking just the opposite...
At least it's not yet another wasp waisted slimline:biggrin:
I like the clean simple lines, I bet someone could sell millions of those if the price is right
The cap length to body ratio is all wrong. Not sure what's up with the nib, seems kind of bumpy. There seems to be something up with the finish in the mid section, like the CA was not MM'ed enough. How does one change the refill? Other than that GREAT pen. Never seen one quite like it. Don't think I can afford a one-off hand crafted pen though, I'll stick to my WalMart supplier.

WOW, that's the thinnest and longest kitless I've seen! How'd you manage such a straight thin body without any drill drift?

It's official. We have all lost our minds!!!!

I think there is a market for that :question:

My Walmart has them only in packages of 10 so I can't buy just one.....
Don't you think you should have painted the tube or the inside of the blank before turning that????I prefer the lines of a more classic looking pen.

How much do you market that for? Is there much competition?

Danny I NEVER said I didn't participate in this thread (it was, and is still amusing)
I just stepped back a second and looked at how Mike might have seen it and I agreeed with him, it was making fun of his proposal.

Nice effort on a kitless oh I mean a componentless pen.
