I need some help in selecting a pen style.....

[Fitz]

My youngest son is in school at UT Houston. He requested I make him a pen that has most of the weight in the lower portion.....just above the nib.


Any body know of a pen that has a low center of gravity?

Thanks!

A slimline with a slight bulge near the nib and the rest bushing to bushing ??

the baron feels that way if you don't post the cap

Maybe a two tone pen ... something light for the cap, like tulip wood (balsa?) and something heavier for the lower part (another wood or an acrylic) ... good luck finding colors that look good together.

low center of gravity

how about this?

How about making a pen with an inlay of some metal where you want the heavy part. Some brass would give it some weight I bet.

I would say put some lead in the tip, but wouldn't that make is a pencil? :tongue:

Wall Street/Sierras are good. Not really "bottom heavy" but good weight and easy for pretty much anyone to write with.
