Here's a pen I've had in the works for a while, but finally got the motivation to make a push and finish. It's a piston filler from some nice red/gray chunk vintage acetate I have. I used a transparent gray acrylic for the ink window, which I thought would complement the acetate well. I made the trim and clip from argentium silver , and the section is cut for Pelikan 2/4/600 size nib units. The pen is a nice size, about 5" when capped.

Very nice. Love that material. Have some of it that I'm hoping to turn myself soon. I'm only capable of doing kits, though. This kitless is amazing--love the ink window.
