'Ebony and ebonite' kitless

[CjG78]

G'day!
Finished this earlier tonight, a spectacular piece of figured black and white ebony, sleeves, finials and section is black ebonite.
Watch crown roll stop, jowo #6 nib and ca finish.
This was fun.

That's a superior piece of writing equipment, Casey. The ebony is just fantastic.
What have you used for the accent pieces at the ends?

Excellent pen Casey. I think it is Bold looking. Nice polish work too.

Great looking pen. I'm partial to B/W ebony and you made the best of it.
the watch crown roll stop is cool, think about trying to inset it slightly. I think it would look more integral to the pen.

man you got crazy good at that in a really short amount of time!

That is really beautiful.

I am curious, what tools do I need exactly to start doing kitless?

I suggest you start a new thread asking about this. It will get you more info. Include what you want to accomplish and what equipment you currently have.

There is a great video on YouTube by rjbwoodturner, he lists everything you need to make them and also makes one

Thankyou Fred. I have a Facebook sales page, pensbycasey, but will be name changing and adding a webstore in the future I think.

Really good! Every pen is better than the previous. Lengths of body and cop look great!
