My second kitless pen this week. On this one I recessed the clip ring for a cleaner look. It did help kill another hour or so. The pen is made from 6061 Aluminum with an Acrylic Acetate front section. The section was designed to work with a Schmidt PRS rollerball nib, a Schmidt #5 FP nib, and a #5 JOWO nib. It's nice and light at 29 grams with the cap and 16 grams without.
The body is 11mm and the cap is 12.5mm. I used an 11mm triple start thread for the cap and a 9mm thread for the section. This is about as small as I can get a #5 FP using a Schmidt ink converter. I stepped drilled the cap and body to give just enough clearance for the nib and converter and allow room for the tapers. Hope you like it, comments and suggestions are always welcome.
