My low cost pens are very satisfying. I can not afford high end pens. Found these low priced pens [ as described in many pen collector forums] can be quite a lot of fun.

Wood kit-less pen 02 of 2014
This is my Second kit-less pen of 2014. Actually this pen was part finished and lying for some time.
There were some indecision about deciding on the design of the Clip and the Clip finial.
I selected a $ 2 Australian coin for the clip finial !
The pen body is a Reynolds Grippy pen refill modified with a wooden section and High quality WingSung Nib.
The Clip is hand made from a thick brass piece and is stiff.
Being a large pen , this pen is surprisingly [light and well balanced as long as the cap is not posted. The barrel is made on an aluminum tube.
There is definitely some more wanted in way of fineness but I am able to convey the design . Will stay in my collection as a prototype.
Curious to know how it appears to the viewers!
