Love the blank and kit. I have made several of these little pens as gifts.
It's also known as the Editor pen, very very economical.

I modified one to accommodate a roller ball refill. All it takes is a longer tube.

I found them on Turner's Warehouse and bought them because they are supposed to be easy to turn into a rollerball like keithlong mentioned, and they are very reasonably priced.

That's a very colorful pen. I typically don't care much for the honeycomb, but I agree with Derek about the stained glass look. It looks great on this pen.
I have one sitting there with the blank picked out waiting to become a rollerball now, but it's behind a couple dozen others in production. There's the matter of getting the spring, too.

Exotic Blanks sells a 10 pack of rollerball springs for $3.50

I find that they stick out way too far and need a spring in the nib end, 6x10 or 6x12. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

That makes a lot of sense. I wonder if I could count on a customer (or, more likely, a gift recipient) to remember to move it to the new cartridge before they toss it?
