Tick tick tick goes the brain.
So, I could cut the main blank 1 inch shorter.
Glue a contrasting wood to the bottom tube.
Turn him up the same and have something bigger to turn for the nib and for pulling apart.
Maybe even file 3 small shallows around the small piece like those rubber ended pens.
I think this may work.

Hey troy I have been doing a couple of these one piece's and I have noticed when Sanding these the nib end moves when applying some pressure and making the pen out of round so I have came up with a solution sticky tape wrapped around the nip end to stop it from moving 3 layers all up just thought I would share my findings Ian
