What Pen are You Using Today?

I finished making this today and it will be my pen for a while as I try to get more into writing and planner use for the year. Spalted tamarind wood with black acrylic caps, delrin sleeves inside the wood and a dark spiral acrylic blue nib section.
The TWSBI Eco with a stub pointy thing does everything I want a fountain pen to do--other than look pretty. My history with more expensive pens hasn't been stellar. Favorite ink: black.
Not using but making a pen out of an Owl feather! I'll post pics of my progress soon.
Today is going to be a Sheaffer Balance.
I’ve got a Conklin. Writes decently and feels good in my hand. I think it was around $75 several years ago. I wouldn’t call it a bargain but it’s nice.

My wife wanted a pen for a certain ink color, just finished making this. All acrylic with just a delrin ring inside the cap for the push fit. Edison nib.
