This is my first try at making a larger custom pen using the #6 nib. My previous 5 or so pens had #5 nibs so all my measurements, taps, and dies had to change for this one. I also had to manufacture all new tooling for the way I like to make them. I decided to take a shot at using aluminum for my section and I really like how it turned out. I used black acrylic for the finials and accented with aluminum. Comments welcome.
