Glorious as Usual, Les.
Love your Selection of Materials, and the Nickle Plating.
The Application of the Polymer Braid, and the Finial and Clip, is Superb.
Great Craftsmanship Throughout.

Very sharp looking pen with the nickel plating on the casing!

I also like the shaping on the braid. Looks as if you used some wood or acrylic to get your shape before adding the braid. Well done!

Very nice, as always, Les !!!!

I notice a bulge to the top barrel ... is there some material between the brass tube and the braid ??

I turned a piece of timber to the size required to get the braid to match the casing head and finial and shaped the wood to get the profile I like.
