Purpleheart and brass rollerball

Finally managed a successful kitless pen. Lots of trial and error figuring out what works (still having trouble sending the threads all the way down)

Looks pretty sharp. Did you scavenge the brass section from a kit or other pen?

Thanks! Nah, I bought some brass tubing off Amazon, drilled it out to fit the ink cartridge, threaded it, then filed and polished it.

That makes it all the more impressive!

Hand filing that hex on the brass? Nice job. Looks great!
