New Year's day pen

[its_virgil]

New year's day fountain pen with Christmas gift blank. I am trying to hone in on a length I like and one that looks good. I shortened the section so I could shorten the cap. I like this one except I think the body is tad short.

For those interested in the specs, here they are:
Cap/body threads: M13x.8 triple lead
section/body threads: M10x1
JoWo #6 medium nib unit
Internal section threads for the nib/feed unit: M7.4x.8
Total length capped: 5.5"
Cap length: 2.4
Section length (exposed part): .9"
Blank from Vermont Freehand

These are kitless Pens and are threaded by hand or using tap and die.

No kit. Made all of the parts myself except the nib/feed unit. Thanks.

Thanks. I'm liking the shorter section also. The shorter cap is much more appealing to me.
Do a good turn daily!.
