Hi,
made this yesterday. Green was from the ever helpful and highly receomended Vincs at The Turners Workshop no affiliation and i have met the lad once, but a very good service.
The top is Jet trustone from another source.
Pen is based around a Schmidt kfh300 all in one unit which is why the grip section is clear.
It is work in progress, i quite like the shape of the pen body, but the cap...not sure, i was limited in the angle i could put on the end of the cap (open part) dues to material getting thin. I wanted a more sleek shape. It is a little longer than a normal kit fountain, as the body is one full blank an the top half a 3/4" blank.
It is a bit scratchy as the finish is not nearly good enough, but i am aware of that.
I would love to know what you think. Please guys be brutal and honest, this is the first picture i have posted and opinions really help me to improve.
Thank you
Pete
