Micro Pocket Pen in Caramel Apple and Red Pearl

Hi folks,

Here is something a bit different.  I had made a series of 'Micro Pocket Pens' a few years ago, but with a threaded barrel end to allow the cap to be screwed onto the end of the barrel.   I didn't really like the look of the exposed threads, though, so haven't made these for quite  awhile.

This time, I have opted to allow posting by friction, which actually worked out quite nicely.  The pen is quite compact when closed, and when posted, the cap is quite secure on the barrel end (won't fall off while you write), and extends the pen enough to be fairly comfortable in action.

The pen is of course cartridge only, as a converter would require quite a bit more barrel length. 

This pen is available on my sales page.

Thanks for looking!

A Year in Pen Making

Hi all, been a long time since I updated my website, since between work and family life I have not had as much time lately for pen making.  Still have managed to squeeze out a few, mostly posting them on Instagram (@kcavers).

Here is a sampling of a few of the pens that I have put together over the past year or so:

Cool Moonlight Pen - a lovely shimmering silver and black resin, done up in my deeply posting Compact style:

Moonlight and Starlight Compact style pen - once again using the same moonlight resin as above, but paired with a darker resin with points of light reminiscent of starry skies:

Red Swirl and Black Curvy style with inlay - in acrylic resins:

Matt Black Ebonite Curvy Style Pen with Real Paua Shell Inlay:

Tropical Sunset Compact Style Fountain Pen (I love this material!):

Arctic Ocean alumilite Compact style Fountain Pen:

Green Swirl Acrylic Bamboo Style Fountain Pen:

Arctic Night alumilite Semi-Compact style Fountain Pen:

Black Ebonite with Ivory Celluloid Inlay Shirt Pocket Fountain Pen (a tribute to the first fountain pen materials!):

Black Cherry Alumilite Compact Style Fountain Pen:

Sunny Granite Shirt Pocket Fountain Pen (this one is still available and is on my 'Available for sale' page):

Well, I guess that's about it for now.  Hopefully will get a few more in before the year is out...

Thanks for looking!
