I made pairs of fountain and rollerball pens. 1st two are maple burl, 2nd two are amboyna burl. That's not a scratch on the amboyna fountain pen's cap, it's a reflection.
I have not mastered photographing pens yet. I'm at the mercy of my phone camera.

Nice work on the maple.

It looks like you've under-turned the cap of the Amboyna, and that the finish might be separated from the wood on the finial end. If you want to improve, measure with calipers to be sure your dimensions are what you want before assembly. Resquare by end- sanding after the CA is on, and then reseal the ends with thin CA. The delam can be from CA overhanging the ends when pressing assembly.
