Mystery Pen Kit

[montmill]

I made this some time ago from a kit I got from Beartooth Woods. I can't for the life of me remember the name of the kit. Does anyone know? Thanks in advance.

I knew it as the classic twist

In the beginning of time, there were not many pen kits to choose from. I remember some of the kits being called "Mont Blanc style" and "Parker". I am guessing those were trademark issues. Shortly after, they were renamed to "Euro" and "Americana".

My question really is, how do you change the refill?

Twist counterclockwise

Thank you very much.

The top half will pull off the bottom half. That will expose the transmission that unscrews to access the Parker ink.
That was one of my favorite sets to make. I still have some. Lol

Thanks John, but that's where this kit differs from the one you speak of. It unscrews as Carl suggested. As I recall its's name had America in it somewhere. As I said it was from Bear Tooth Woods and they no longer carry it.

The one I have pulls apart. The transmission is a dual twist.
