I made a big design update , mostly on the pen, and modified the lighter so it can fit the new pen design.
Thanks to Ed who sent me very interesting files.

I ordered printed parts from resin, some black that can be polished, to make the pen barrel and nib block.
Ald also some white, same, to be polished,to make lighter furnace detail.

Today I got a 2010 FE golden gun in the mail.
There are some plating issues, I will remove warnish, and make a complete new gold plating, also thinking about a way to make the colibri engraving, to increase the accuracy a bit.
I will also make some comparative shots, mine and FE, at least for the parts I already have.
