Lovely wood Johnny :thumbs:

But if you take a close look at the second photo down on the right hand side its showing daylight between the wood and the nib adaptor :whistling:

Love the olive wood and it works so well with the gunmetal Omega.:thumbs:
The one I made similar to that sold very quickly, customer had a Bock nib added so should be a very nice pen for him.

Wow an all rounder mate among the best of timber I have seen in Olive Wood ever, the most uniformly joined cap and body ever keeping styling in the cap, certainly the Omega lends itself all the way to this shaping.

As one who craves and rarely finds grain as powerful as this pen thanks for showing , I am quite overwhelmed Johnny. Pen perfect.

Peter.

I use a fountain with the original nib you replaced it serves me well.

That's a lovely piece of wood which you have brought the best out of.:thumbs: Not a great fan of the kit though especially the section .
