Greetings
I purchased a piston and piston barrel from Richard Greenwald, check out photos and my description in the Fountain Pen section.
I used a blue and gold alumilite blank form Cody Elliott (WCE274). It was my first alumilite and I like how it machines and feels in the hand. There is a softness and warmth I don't get from acrylic. The blind cap on the end unscrews to access the knurled piston knob.
I am happy with the brass handmade clip. i made a fixture from dense poly foam used in outdoor trim applications to form the hook and help hold it for sanding to shape.
Thanks for looking.
