Closed ended Galaxy Trek on a Jr Gent
I really like the Jr Gent because it's almost as customizable as a slimline. One thing I've been wanting to do is a to remove the black trim ring & replace it with a ring made from the blank. And I almost always do a custom cap finial. Here's one I finished last weekend. The blank I call Galaxy Trek because it reminds me of a view of deep space.
As always C&C welcome.
Here's a close-up of the cap with ring.
