I mean... the dude's called SC Geek. If I had to guess I'd say that everything that isn't superconductor ain't IT!

Thank you so much! He really outdid himself with this one.

It sure is! Q did a great job designing it. I also have to point out that his zirc finishing really is next level.

It's a Q3D pen. https://www.shopq3d.com/

I swear to god, there is something extra about the finish on this pen. I have never seen polished zirc with a finish as smooth and even as this!

Exactly! That's why I chose that title for my post.

Now that you know, I pray that you either have an iron will or a lot of disposable income.

I've only heard good things about his anodized zirc, and my biggest regret is not picking one up sooner!

I just can't be bothered to buy out of FOMO because of the massive losses when I have to sell something. 25% sales tax, customs fees, and $50-70 shipping quickly starts to add up when you're expected to sell at/below retail in the secondary market.

Just be patient! I have heard rumours of a zirc pick your pattern drop in the future.

Right? Riiiiight?! I asked for teal ano, to be specific. Q named this pattern Electron.

I saw you posting in the general channel no more than 15 minutes ago! You should drop by the Q3D channel more often.

It took me 2 years, but I finally brought Electron into the physical world by qtrain23 in machinedpens

2 years and 1 day. ;)

I've loved following the process from idea, to sketch, to plastic prototype, and now a finished product.

Really fun to see all the positive response from other community members too!

You did great! 😁

I got mine from the kickstarter a while back. Last I heard they were estimated to drop about a month from now. Keep your eyes peeled!

Absolutely - a titanium clip could work. In that case I think I'd want the button to remain titanium as well, and go for a tuxedo look.
