Default Weekend's Work

Don't think I showed this one before, although I actually did most of the work a couple of weeks ago and thought it was done. It needed some work, so I trimmed the barrel down to be more comfortable, and added some rings. They're mostly decoration, since they're a little too far up from the nib to be of much use when writing. The pen is my adaptation of a Sierra Click and a Cigar, morphed into a single body with no centerband. To change the refill, you have to unscrew the nib.



This one is a basic Jr. Gent fountain pen with a closed end. The material is Tiger Eye tru-stone.





As always, thanks for looking. Your comments and criticisms are welcome.
