Success!!

[KenB259]

This one had some brass showing through. I was going to just disassemble and remake it but with some encouragement from some here, I decided to try and fix it. I'm calling it a success. I can't even see where I fixed it. I used a dremel to clean out the initial CA from the void and filled with sawdust and thin CA, sanded it and refinished. I have never worked so hard for a pen before, but this one was worth it.

Nice going, Ken !!!!

Please draw a circle around the former void !! . . . I wasn't sure I could see it in your former thread about this pen.

Hard to see, looked worse in person and the other void was on the other side, looks like I didn't get that one in a photo.

If you can't see the repaired area, then it must be invisible. Nice save, and beautiful pen!

Great Job! I understand it might of been a lot work but now you know you can do it! If you run across a blank that's not replaceable you know how to go about fixing it. Great Looking Pen!
