My first bulb filler!

Finally found some tubing that slip fits quite tightly over the nipple on the back of the feed so I went ahead and made a bulb filler tonight.
Going to raffle it off to help raise money for a scholarship I'm starting for my kids at school.

Very cool! I love ink view windows, especially on pens with a large capacity.

Got to agree. Not only will you be able to see the amount of ink remaining in the pen, but it 'adds' something unique to the pen. Well thought out, or was it a happy accident?

All thought out - thought I'd do the next one a bit differently, though.

That's pretty cool looking material, Shawn. Is the window so you can keep track of your ink level?

 

[watch_art]

yep - it's an ink window. Also helps to figure out when it's full up. Pump the bulb a bunch of times, turn it nib up and peek. If you see ink you're FULL.
