Redheart, Yellowheart and Bocote. I definitely learn with time, but that whole kitless thing is a much tougher journey than I thought it will be. How do you CA finish kitless pens without glue getting stuck to the ebonite parts? I tried to tape them, but the tape ended up glued together to the...

Good morning all, I hope you are all doing well! I've been making pens as gifts for friends and family, and am looking for an additional way to personalize them for each individual. I had the idea to wood burn their name or a VERY short and small note on each one, prior to the finishing...

Hello, I found an earlier post from a member @wimkluck using hardware acquired from Germany and I liked the looks of it, so I started searching to find where to buy it. I found the site and corresponded back and forth with the owner with questions about sizing and the refills...

Question for those of you who have worked with clear cast acrylic. I'm finding that it mars very easily. I made a clear cap and after a few times on and off there is a ring mark on the inside of the cap where it lightly touches the end of the section as the cap is being put on. The end of the...

This fountain pen has been an idea in my head for a few years now, and this is my first successful attempt at it. I still have a few processes to iron out as I develop this design (hidden clip, CA finish, wall thicknesses), but as a proof of concept I am very pleased with how this pen came out...
