Kitless, Jade Green acrylic acetate

[duncsuss]

Built around a Meisternib #6 nib, section I drilled, tapped and turned the section from black ebonite (hardened rubber). The cap and barrel I made from Jade Green #06 acrylic acetate (which I bought from Logs to Lumber, it's also available from Woodturningz.)

The pen will take a regular ink cartridge or converter, but could also be used as an "eyedropper" (simply filling the barrel cavity with ink). A little silicone grease on the section/barrel threads should seal it.
