I've collected stationery especially pen for quite some time and I have one dream which is to make my own pen. I did have some machining and 3d printing experience and fiddle a little bit with CNC router before. Sourcing pen mechanism might be a bit challenging for me as pen turning is not really a popular hobby where I live so I might have to make do with what I have (might even need to make my own mechanism but very likely will start with the most obvious option like making a cap pen or salvage parts from other pens). Thank you for having this forum up and running as I find the discussion here really interesting and very helpful.

Thank you all for a very warm welcome.
Welcome to Talking Horse Radish ( I have never written those last 3 words together before!!!!! )
Yes, my naming sense is questionable. It is an online handle that I use since my very early day of learning English. Thinking back, I'm not even sure how did I come up with this name.
