London fog kitless with Esterbrook nib

[Carl Fisher]

This pen uses the Esterbrook renew point nib lineup. It's eye dropper filled which works well with this material since it's pretty translucent.

When I started making pens I never liked these kitless pens. The more I learn the more I appreciate them. This one is fantastic. Well done. And I love that nib. Need to get my hands on some of those.

Thanks all. This one was probably sitting on my bench for 6 months or more. I didn't like the original shape and never got around to making a cap because of it. I finally decided to rework the overall body shape and then finally figured out the cap I wanted to go with it.

The Esterbrook nibs are great but you have to be willing to make some sort of sac based pen or an eye dropper since they don't have a nipple for a cartridge or converter. Making the front section is also much easier since it's threaded at the front instead of the rear. I think silverpenparts is one of the few places you can find the tap for these.

So you're telling me I did all that MS Paint wizardy for your cap and you just re-did the pen!

But seriously, I do like it. Like the style you went with.
