Calligraphy Pen kit?

[Dominic Greco]

Hi everyone,

A co-worker has asked me to turn her some new quill holders for her calligraphy pens. Does anyone know someplace I could buy the brass inserts that go with these? I went to CSUSA's website and didn't see anything like it.

I would imaging that a kit for these would contain a brass insert, and maybe a nib.

No kits are available for these. The only thing you need is the insert and you can buy them here.

I suggest you go buy one of the commercially made holders so you have a better idea of length and diameter.

If you hurry, you still might be able to get in on this buy:

Thanks for the help! I was given one pen to use as a "template". So I know the size and shape they should be. I'll look into ordering the parts from "Joe's pens" when I get a chance.
