Two clip-less flat ended pens made

[sanyalsoumitra]

This design is a new tryout and I feel quite happy the way the pens turned out.. Clip-less model with clip fitment provision kept in the dark pen, slip on snake type roll stopper.
The pen is relatively simple to machine, 17 mm straight cap with 14.8 mm straight barrel with 4 degree end taper. The section is 19 mm with concave grip, quite ok to hold. Short and stubby looking but overall length is more than that of a Parker Sonnet.
Jowo 6 nib unit and Jinhao converter fitted.

The acrylic material very high quality and it machines like ebonite, well , almost. Regret the photo quality, actually the pens look better.
Hope you like the design. Appreciate comments and criticism.

I like your work !!

Where do you get the snake roll stoppers ?

Beautiful pens! I like the pink and black one the best, very classy. The only comment, and it's minor, is the sharp shoulder above the cap threads. Think about a chamfer here to smooth this transition where you hold the pen.

Beautiful work Soumitra. I think you're going to have to change your sig-line. You make more than "a few pens", heck, you're making kitless pens more often than many of us make kit pens!

Sir, I am home for near two and half months and making pens on my Sieg C2 300 lathe. Planning not to make pens on the ship, working on the large lathe is not precision job and involves lots of rework and breakage. Better plan would be write pen reviews while on the ship!

Thanks everyone for liking the pens and your kind words of appreciation.
