It will be just fine, Harry. Don't be self conscious, we know what you mean and enjoy your participation.[:D][:D][:D][:D]
 
It's pretty sweet for sure! Looks like a comet. Is it a twist pen? I wish I had a tutorial for that, because that's a pen I need to own. Very conversational! Perhaps if you can't explain how it's done and what parts are used, someone else can?
 
Hi Jeff,
this pen is turned on a chuck made of a piece of wood, hope you understand, like a closed end mandrell. I try to place here a photo about the kit. I like this pens because you can see the whole beauty of the wood....ok, i think that was an arabian chineese english[:D]

Is that nib threaded? Where's that kit come from with the parker style refill?

It's my artistic side that has to make this suggestion. Turn a globe out of something swirly like fake turquoise with a flat spot at the bottom so it can't roll away. Drill a hole for the pen to sit into slightly on an angle into the ball. If you find something that looks like a planet, it'll look like a comet striking it. You can even turn the ball so it has some ripples around the entry hole...shock waves! Maybe I'm crazy, but I'm loving my idea!
 
what means threaded? You cannot turn the nib,
the kite is from Germany, dont know, whether you can get it in USA

it's a nice idea to turn a planet
 
Hi Harry, and welcome from the sunny south of the UK.[8D]
Nice pens you have shown well done.[:)]
I was in the Rhine valley two weeks ago and loved it, you sure have a beutiful country Matey.
Can we get an english version of the website link you posted please, I am ashamed to say that I cannot read German.
Regards Derek
 
Hi Derek, the Steinert website is only in German, but i saw, that they are shipping worldwide. So you must be contended about the pictures and prices, they are international[;)], i enjoy at english websites the pictures too, because i cannot understand the most...
greetings Harry
