First Bespoke. Used a rollerball nib from a kit. 8.5x1. 12mm on body and cap threads. Acrylic. I did remount the cap and take a bit off the rounded end.

I love the swirly blank and its color !!

Excellent work Rich. Love the color and the shape. Nice alternative on the rollerball nib.

Thank you. I had four rollerball nibs left over from kits. 1-8.5x.75 and 3-8.5x1. The rollerball has no spring. Drilling depth in body is critical.
