Ink window and clear front section

[Carl Fisher]

Did a little playing around when Jonathon was up at my shop last weekend. Some very unique material that struck me as needing a bit of a special treatment on the design.

Clear acrylic ink window and the same clear acrylic for the grip section. I'm happy with the way it turned out.

You're killing me. I'm either going to have to commission a pen or spend lots of money buying stuff to make my own.

Great job. Now id someone would make a clear ink feed it would be over the moon...

Awesome job Carl...

 

[Carl Fisher]

Thanks Vic.

That would be cool

Awesome work.

Beautiful pen.
I'm fascinated by the material. Is it some old long out of production stock, or something a vendor is selling?

Your fountain pens are up there with the best of them imo. Those blanks you have been using are awesome.

 

[Carl Fisher]

The material is some form of vintage stock but the jury is still out on what it is exactly. It's some form of French celluloid or cellulose. Smells like menthol when cutting and comes in block form.

Carl, That's a very nice pen. I like the clear section as well. Evan

Evan, the funny thing is that you and I must have had the same thought at the same time. I made this 2 weekends ago and before I could even post it, you had put yours up. The timing would have been funny if I didn't wait a week to post my own :biggrin:
