Here are some photos of my recent pens. Some wood and some acrylic. The copper pen was from the ebay batch l bought with some unidentified kits. I believe that one is a fillibella but couldn't source bushings for it so used something else. Turned out near enough. I have plenty of unidentified wood as well which is a nuisance but I will learn as l go.

I have another kit to identify. It's only got the parts in the picture so not sure of the tube required nor the twist mechanism required. Anyone got any idea as it looks and feels like a well made kit?
