Hello, For your consideration, I offer an Apollo In stainless and a Kitless in I believe a celluloid blank with a #6 Jowo nib. Comments are welcome.

Apologies - I hardly belong in "advanced" anything, as I've never turned a pen before. But it seems the most fitting place for the question. My friend has a particular snap cap rollerball pen that he uses pretty exclusively. I'd like to basically try to replicate it, except turned on the lathe...

Jr. George rollerball pen. Rhodium and Gold plated, turned from Black & White Ebony. CA finish.

I ordered some kits between Christmas and the New Year and they arrived earlier this week so I thought I would give the Snap Cap Rollerball a go, this is a very simple single tube kit that may not have a lot of bling but I like them. I had to blanks of Red Heart and picked what I thought was the...

Hi, I have a problem with the Jr. statesman rollerball pen kit from Dayacom (the postable version). The spring and the Schmidt 5888 refill don't quite fit in together. I have to push the refill very hard into the spring and then tighten the end of the pen very hard, something that I suppose...

Rollerball pen turned from Goncalo Alves wood. Rhodium and 22kt Gold Majestic kit. CA finish. Love this colour contrast!

I made a Jr. Stateman FP as a gift about 6 years ago. The recipient turned out not to like that it was a FP and I'd like to convert to a rollerball. Does anybody know if (1) a rollerball tip can just be swapped in and (2) if anybody sells just that rollerball part without buying a whole kit...

G'day! So I have been hoarding this fordite stuff for a few months now, and thought I'd spin some. It has lovely metallics in it, doesn't show in the photos. Modern Jeep on a Dayacom Harold black titanium rollerball. 8 coats of thin ca to protect it. Thanks for looking! Case

Let me say thanks in advance to all those who respond. This forum is amazingly helpful. I always get great advice here. So here it goes. I have had a request for high end rollerball pens for an executive board of directors for a school. I'm getting lost in all the options. I have made a...

:bananen_smilies068:Does anyone know of a click pen kit that will accept a rollerball refill. I have a customer that is looking for one. If not, is there a rollerball refill that will fit in a standard click pen kit?

Here is a Jr. Abraham dressed with a blank I bought during last year's MPG in Wadsworth, Ohio. I love this kit and blank. The kit is heavy and feels very stout in your hand. Let me know what you think!

Okay, a play on words, but it is all natural occurring woods and colors :biggrin: Pennstate Ind. 24kt gold victorian rollerball. Woods include Satinwood, Bloodwood, Ipe, Ebony, and a touch of (non-organic) dymondwood. Finished in cyanoacrylate (okay, so that's non-organic too:-)). If you've not...
