Love it, looks awesome!

How does it feel with the .9mm cap wall? I'm always scared to thin the wall too much.
What are you using for a stop, since it is stepless.

it feels solid. I don't think its too thin. Dropping etc won't be an issue but I wouldn't want to sit on it. The last one I made from alumilite and it was definitely more flexible than this is.
it stops on the section lip. I have kept it wide and square so that it seats firmly on a step down inside the cap.

Step less barrel construction

I am going to work on a prototype step less. This seems to be the only way to make a pen as slim as I would like and they look sleeker and feel better in the hand. it would appear fairly straight forward. I know the cap will have to stop on the section, requiring a little alteration of the...

at the bottom is a picture of the prototype. The cap portion has a 13mm through hole. once the black piece (9mm through hole) is screwed into the top, this is how the inside of the cap is shaped. I use these pieces to determine where the stop is located, screwing it in or out to get the stop where its needed in the final pen.
