A buddy requested these to give as gifts for Christmas. I moved from the west coast to the east coast about the time he requested these so getting them done in time got "interesting" but I managed to unpack enough of my equipment to make it happen (with time to spare, thanks to Priority Mail, to get them to him before Christmas).
The original request was for all three to be made with "Antique Pewter" (like the one in the middle) but the only kits I could find during unpacking were in the starter set. Thankfully, the starter set also has the bit and bushings which saved a bunch more digging through unpacked boxes. My buddy agreed that having them each in a different finish would help the recipients keep track of which one was theirs (they all work together). Whew! :biggrin:
Each pen's original ink was tossed in a drawer and an Easy Flow 9000 refill was used instead. The Easy Flow refills write sooooooooooo much better than the stock inks!
