My first kitless fountain pen

Hello everyone,
Just wanted to post a pic of my first pen. Nothing spectacular for blanks but something simple with a little color.

Simple is Good. Your pen looks great.

Very nice - well done! It's a great feeling getting the first one done.

That it was! Definitely learned some things to do and not to do in the future!

A clip and everything for your 1st one. Great Job! :good:

Gorgeous! What size are those cap threads?

 

[chet0213]

I used 10 x .75 for the section and 14x1 for the cap. Lesson learned that about 4-6 mm will give enough threads so I don't have to turn 4 times to get the cap off!

Cool! I gotta do that when I grow up.

Nice pen! Making a kitless is still beyond me, so nothing to scoff at!
