My First Custom/Kitless Pen

[EatenAppleCrafts]

This was my second attempt and it finally worked out. The blank was Nebula from LumberJim on etsy. The section piece was by far the hardest part. Very fine tolerances for the skinner Jowo no. 5 nib.

Congrats Owen,

It took me more than a second attempt to make something which resembled a working kitless pen.

Like you are likely to be, it just sits on my desk to be looked at and unscrewed from time to time, never to be used!!!

Or am I just being silly??

Thanks for sharing it with us

Dang Owen, that looks sharp.
I hope you have a second one in the wings to go into the Kitless contest, because you have the skills.

Thank you all for the compliments. I'm working on the next one now but am having some drilling off center issues. Love this site.

Not being silly. The best part is the kids will use them from time to time, making it all worth it!
