Parker 51 Ballpoint Dent Reversal

This ballpoint pen was in really excellent shape – except for that HUGE dent in the cap, of course…

This was one of my tougher jobs; I had this pen on my bench for hours, and just getting the top jewel unscrewed was a chore (probably a sign of what was ahead). Though I was not able to achieve a perfect result, I think the improvement was worthwhile.
