Hey there!
I'm relatively new to the whole world of pen making, and I'm going to need a lot of help as I take on my first project.
I'm currently working on a retro style, hooded nib pen. Something reminiscent of a Pelikan MK10 combined with a Parker 51. In examining other pens from that era, I've noticed that most post using a sort of cylindrical leaf spring built into the cap. Have any of you experimented with such a design? If not, what are some other ways of deeply and securely posting a cap?
