I've been seeing clickable fountain pens on the regular Pen Store sites and I was curious as to whether or not anyone has come across kits for us to make a clickable/retractable fountain pen... Anyone?
My experience that kit fountain pen are for. show and not use. Drying out and are leaking , the main problem and due to the design of the kit ability to seal the nib.
Google the Lamy German made, for fountain pen and you see how they have three seal 's to control drying out and prevent leaking.
