I was playing with an Atlas from AZ and wanted to see what I could do to turn it into a pencil... PSI is the only one making that style in a pencil and in limited plating, unlike the Atlas..
Well I figured it out..
Sent the directions to Bill B and he played with it and decided it was a workable system... he put the directions on his website under the instructions area. Here is the link

Now you can make an Atlas pencil and all you need is the $3.00 Schmidt pencil mechanism that you can buy for the Perfect Fit Convertable... BUT REMEMBER, the dimensions are critical.. I always use a caliper when doing this and sneak up on the dimension and keep trial fitting until it works.. but it can be done and gives you the option of making a pen and pencil kit... BTW, I use the same dimension for making the pen...
Have fun with it.. Here is a picture of one
