Jr. Gent rollerball to FP conversion

[jskeen]

Is it possible to convert a completed Jr. Gent rollerball to FP? If so, what's involved?

Thanks
James

Simply replace the rollerball nib assembly with a fountain pen assembly, same thread. Remember to remove the spring from the rear of the rollerball as they can foul the converter of a fountain pen.

If you want the cap to post, and your rollerball is not post-able, you will need to turn a different barrel with the appropriate end cap.

James, I like your signature. I have been a Parrothead for longer than I care to remember.

Chris' advice is spot on. Also, after the conversion, you will have another rollerball kit to make.

Cool, that's what I was hoping. I'm going to make two identical pens out of gaboon ebony and hippo ivory, and wanted to be able to sell them either separately, or as a set, one RB and one FP.
