I have recently 5 vintage cellulose acetate blanks. I have used previous similar blanks with slim line kits, but feel they deserve something a little more special.
They have the following dimensions
1. 11.6mm external. 7.6mm internal
2. 12.7mm external. 9.0mm internal
3. 13.2mm external. 9.2mm internal
4. 13.0mm external. 9.4mm internal
5. 9.9mm external. 6mm. internal

Any suggestions about kits or about how well will this material take threading.

I also have 5 Conway Stewart nib assemblies very fine with a threw dia. of 6.0 dia pictures attached, I hope !!!
Any suggestions, tips or advice appreciated.

Thanks for the remarks, I have not yet ventured into 'kitless' but I think these blanks need to be treated with respect.
The smallest in diameter will probably thread for the Conway Stewart nib assembly but what to do with the opposite end ? And a cap / clip?
