Here are my latest dip pens. I bent my last speed ball nib, so I have to go get some more that is why there isn't a nib in them.

I need help with pictures. Any suggestions would be great!

Thanks for looking and commenting good bad or indifferent.

They look great, love the colors. I was wondering how the balance is on them . The ball at the end, is that to help or for looks? I have a couple in the plans for the near future and was hoping not to waste too many in the trail and error process. Thanks
 
I think they are very balanced. I put the ball on the end, because I like it. The biggest failure rate on these is getting the plastic hot and or putting to much pressure at the end and bending it so the end is off center and I have to try to finish sanding it off the lathe. I haven't done any out of wood yet but have a few set up to do.
