I wanted a minimal pen holder for some slimline pens I made as gifts. The case self aligns the pocket clip vertically when the lid to the case is put in place. This makes it is easy to lift the pen out of the case, and uses magnets to hold the top to the bottom.

The magnets are 6x2mm round neodymium magnets, I used these ones http://a.co/d/gfDwgAZ make sure the magnets attract before gluing them into each half of the case or the case wont stay together.

The pens were based on the kits here http://a.co/d/6Ha2l1E only instead making wood pens I turned the barrels from brass and aluminum on my metal lathe. They look and feel a lot like Zebra 301 type pens(I however have not checked if the Zebra pens will fit the case).
