Pink Smoke

[Displaced Canadian]

Did a little casting. And after asking the Skiprat about how he threaded a piece as thin as he did I worked up the nerve to do this pen. The cap is only about 13mm at it's widest point. I don't care for thick pens. The metal parts are aluminum. I'm starting back in slowly. Next time I may reverse paint the blank because you can still see some lines where the body is threaded into the nib. Please let me know your thoughts.

That's a very pretty pen. Looks great from here. My guess is that either my wife or my daughter would walk away with it!

Very cool!

how thin is the pen where you did the threading?
I have a part or two where I thread the inside 8.4 x .75 inside of 10 x .75 threads on the outside.

The metal band on the cap is 12 x.75 and the inside part is 10 x 1.
