A Pen Repair That Got Away

It all started out with really great intentions. 
I was given this Modern Parker Duofold by a friend of mine but it had one small problem.

Well my thought was it would look great with a black lip at the bottom of the cap.
As things usually go when I am in the studio with the fire going things get a bit out of hand.
Here is what I ended up with.


I was able to use the clip as well as the final on the cap so if I ever come across another green or black cap I can still put it all back to original Parker Duofold.
In the mean time I have a new pen for my pocket.

Tamer"s new pencil

Tamer seen the pictures of a 2mm lead holder I made a bit ago and asked me to make one up for him.
The material is from the vintage stock I got a while ago and the only thing I changed on this one was that I added a grip section just above the nose cone.  It is a bit hard to see but if you look close you can see it.
