How long from start to completion, if I may ask?

 Sure, but unfortunately, not easy to answer.  I've never timed myself when making a pen, and I generally have a couple of projects going at once.  I would estimate that I take somewhere around 8 hours total on a pen like this one.  But, that doesn't account for parts breaking or just not looking right and having to start over.  On this pen, for instance, I made a goof that made the cap not quite what I wanted, so I started over after spending probably close to two hours trying to save it.  Also, I make my own resin most of the time.  The material on this pen is quite difficult to get right, and I spent time re-pouring a few different times.  I have no idea how much time I wasted there.

I will admit that I tend to be somewhat of a perfectionist, and probably take too much time.
