I forget to post here every once in a while but probably most have seen these elsewhere. Both Pens are with my typical CA finish.
This is a 'Stretched' Black Titanium Atlas. This modification uses a longer tube and a Unibal 207 refill. This mod came about because the wife liked the Atlas/Cabara style of pens but they were too short.
Is she satisfied ... no, she has a new modification for me to attempt the next time.
The piece of timber is Buckeye Burl that I stabilized in my poor-mans pickle jar system twice.
The first time I tried using a mixture of 50-50 white glue and water. A BIG mistake on my part with the BEB.
This never setup solid and chunks of the BEB would literally fall off. I then baked the snot out of it and then used some other stuff and this is the result.
Next is a Wallstreet II Elegant in Black Titanium and Gold and the piece of timber is Spalted Autograph from Hawaii.
