Another Diamond Knurl RB

[sorcerertd]

Finally finished this! I've been working on this for an hour here, 20 min there, and so on. These DK pens are so versatile. This is the all Ti Gold version. The blank... I forget the name. It's an Alumilite blank I got from Etsy. I did the custom finial, but decided to just leave the knurled band. I only wish the finial had more of the darker color in it for more contrast. Finished with 2 coats of GluBoost pro, and 2 of thin, then polished through the Zona paper grits. I feel that Alumilite doesn't hold the shine as well as the more brittle "plastics", so the CA helps with that part.

Good work. I like the blank very much. I can see how a darker finial could look good as well.

Gorgeous Pen. That's a really great looking blank. It looks really nice with the plating on the kit. I think it might be how the little wisps of gold in the blank tie them together. The custom cabochon is a nice touch. - Dave

I just have to get around to making it available in the store. :/

Beautiful combination, Todd!!
Thank-you for showing.

Thanks for making this pen kit available, and in so many options!
I kinda want to start mix and matching the bands as I have quite a few that I've removed in favor of custom ones. Gold and gunmetal always look so good together.
