Hi everyone!
I have turned more pens than I can count from kits, then started combining multiple kits to make pens that met my aesthetic preferences. My favourite kit combination is a round-top European with centre band from a Streamline kit. My pen with the most WOW factor is a towering 22" desk pen (so you don't lose it, and nobody walks away with it).
Now, I am currently working on a kitless pen design and am evaluating whether I get can get a "click" mechanism to work in it. My friend @magpens recommended the Schmidt SKM-88 and SKM-192. If anybody else has recommendations for quality click mechanisms (or has built a click mechanism!), I'd love to hear from you.
My background is furniture making, but my passions are for design and engineering. I like to make things efficient.
