This is what I got from the Opera glasses holder that Jeff sent. He is officially off of my Christmas Card list now!!!!:biggrin: What a PIA this was!!!!
If it belonged to me, then I would have chucked it against the wall a couple of times Nothing was round and the material is paper thin.
Jeff has done his first one ( nicer than these ) and you can see it here
These both have Parker style refills. The big MOP one has a Jr Gent BP mech and it pulls apart in the middle to change the refill. The skinny one used to have a dovetail spring loaded clamp in the end that was made from Tortoise shell, but it just was already broken and dissintergrated just by looking at it... just used a bit of Antique Gold acrylic. The new mech is inside this bit.
Jeff, please remind me not to open my big mouth next time:biggrin:
