cap

I have been sent here from Reddit pens as I have a question (thanks octopips) I have an old generic / no make filigree Roller Ball pen that has great sentimental value for me. It is styled on the Parker Duofold. Inside the cap there is a plastic sleeve that holds the cap onto the nib part when...

This is my most recent pen - the body and cap are Italian acrylic (trimmed in black) with nickel fittings. The nickel clip features a Celtic spiral pattern - chased and filed. Bock #6 (from Beaufort Ink, of course!) in an ebonite section and 13 mm cap threads. I have been amassing these pens...

Yeah I know it's just another X Cut Cocobolo Mistral BUT The grain pattern is something I thought you would all like to see. Check out the Cap, both sides Hope you like it

Working from the pair of prototypes, I landed on this as a first shot. I was trying to work through some proportions that pleased me while working a little bigger - #6 Bock and 13 mm cap threads. This pen features Green Juma barrels (thanks JayBreda for this gift) and a Connemara Marble...

This is the one I've been working on this week. Doesn't look like most of a work week to you? The pen only took about six hours. The metal work took about three days. (In all fairness, that time includes making a couple of the parts twice because sometimes I do foolish things. The learning...

Decided that a faceted pen was finally not beyond my skill set. Planned a bronze clip for this. Then looked at it and said, "Nope. Done." (Octagonal, so it doesn't need a rollstop either!) 13 mm cap threads, Acrylic with ebonite section, Bock #6 nib from Phil. Might actually keep this one.

And…finished late last night. This is a Bock #6 nib, 13 mm cap threads, black ebonite throughout. Proper photos later today.

This is one of our latest ones in a new blank from Tim McKenzie (@mckenziepenworks). This blue is fabulous – add the sparkle that comes with Tim’s DiamondCast blanks and the daylight takes over. Bock #5 nib, a custom nickel clip and three-tiered cap finial make this a simple deco-style pen...

My first Minstrel pen kit. I got the centre band in the wrong location and I can not seat the piece that sits on top of the cap fully obviously I am doing something wrong. But what ever I would certainly do another one.

Hi I purchased a stainless steel British made Shakespeare pen kit. The pen did not turn out well I used Yew. I ended up using three blanks to make one pen. The blanks blew up on turning I ended up with holes in the wood and splits. The pen looks awful. It was not a cheap kit so I would like to...

Hi All. Well they don't always go to plan. Didn't get the catch on video I'm afraid. I have put the Rollester clip on the cap. Now I will try a closed end turning and still keep the clip. Polymer cane pen. - YouTube

The jewelry maker with whom I collaborated to make the standard model (ebony with CA finish - posted earlier in the week) wanted a variety of woods for his retail store. Shown here (L-R), the pens are done in (A) brown dyed Box Elder, (B) Bocote, (C) yellow-dyed Box Elder, (D) gray Tiger Oak...

2nd kitless pen, this time in Wenge with white mother of pearl acylic. This was a challenge as the wall thickness on the cap is very thin.

Hi guys...here we have 2 cartridge case fountain pens one is .500 NE and the nickle is .470 NE i used a magnetic cap from a Zen kit for that:ciggrin:

After a few weeks of sketching, working out sizes and getting help and advice from the good people on the forum, I finally took the plunge today and had a go at a kitlesspen in green acrylic and Conway Stewart Ebonite. Still have to make a cap, but really enjoyed this first attenpt and quite...

Time to step over that silly edge and finally post something I've made. Still chasing scratches and spending what I feel is far too long on the finishing process but learning a lot! I'm happy with these two. A pair of Mistrals in GPS Honey Noir Acrylic, cap bands of the same material, black...

I suppose this is the time of year when all you wits and comedians get your Christmas avatar together. There's a prize awarded in December this year for the best one, so get your creativity cap on. And for once, I've beaten you all to it. I believe I am the first, darlings:frenchkiss:

I am looking for 2 ELITE CAP NUTS can any one help. Glen:sob:

Its been a while since I turned any pens or posted any pics. First of all I turned 10 of each style. The lever action is a new kit for me. The barrel is short enough I can get 2 from 1 blank. I'm hoping it sells well. Second picture is the Over/Under kit also new to me. This pen is a...

Hi guys, When I made the GT Knurl I had an idea to make up a Jr Gent using the segmented blank that I left over from the knurl. I cut in half again this blank and turned these around and glue the two halves together, forming a chevron effect on one side and a checkered effect on the other...
