Blue and black ebonite fountain

[Texatdurango]

First ebonite pen. It stinks to high heaven when turning but turned and threaded like a dream.

Custom front section and titanium centerband. The clip is temporary, I plan on making a matching titanium clip this afternoon.

It's a triple start, using the tap and die from the original group buy. The front section is made by me and uses the small nib and feed, in this case, a Heritage SF medium.

George!
Your design and features and use of materials are excellent well done, also how did you go with the Sherline lathe.

 

[PTJeff]

Is it an eyedropper, CC or cartrige?
Love the taper of the body. Very appealing

 

[PR_Princess]

Very classy George! And of course the nib compliments your work wonderfully.

It takes a standard Schmidt converter or rubber refill cartridge.

Thanks for the comment about the taper, it took me a few dozen or so pens before I finally came up with a taper and ends that I'm happy with. Here the pen is capped and you can see that the cap is tapered a little also.

Awesome pen.

 

[toolcrazy]

That is rock-solid. I'm amazed at the degree of craftmanship that is on display here, and even better the willingness of the old-hands to share their knowledge.
