I have a bit of this orange hard rubber that I am building a pen out of.
My question is would it look better with a black end cap and black over the clip of leave it 100% orange.





Thanks

Chris

Just MHO: I would like a black end cap (and barrel, if it is a piece by itself) instead of a plain red piece.

HTH.

A bit of black would look good!
The pen would resemble the Duofold though.

i think that orange is ROCKIN. i'd love a pen of nothing, NOTHING, but that orange. maybe glossy black furniture though. but black and orange look awesome together. think of the majestic Tiger.

Just checking back my post, it looks that I was writing faster than what my brain works. I was not referring to a black body (barrel), besides the cap's end, but to the barrel's END...

This way it would look like A LOT of orange and both black ends.

Sorry for the tricky ("misunderstandable") phrase.
