Purple Aero and Vertex Supreme FP

[TonyL]

The Aero is a gift pen for my wife's gal-friend and I made the Vertex Supreme FP for myself (l really like the convenience of the magnetic cap..and the stock nib wasn't bad either). A fellow member encouraged me to try it...glad I did. The blank is was one of Mark Dietrick's hemlock cone blanks. They are solid and turn beautifully. His are one of my favorites. Used a CA finish.

Comments, questions, "Why my photos continue to stink?", etc....all 100% welcome.

A brief comment on your photos:

Tony, great looking pens! I need to try a Vertex Supreme, it really shows off the blank.

Both are great looking pens Tony.
The purple one really pops though.
Nice work on both of them my friend.

Beautiful! As nice as the Aero is, I think you got the better end of the deal. That Vertex Supreme is a real step up from the standard one, the cap looks much nicer than the metal caps, and the blank is gorgeous. I agree, the nib is pretty nice for writing with, I use mine all day at my job. The magnetic cap is a plus imo. I think it's a solid fountain pen for not a lot of money. I'll definitely step up to the Supreme after I make my one remaining standard Vertex though. Very nice job on both of those, but I'm still drooling over the Vertex!

Thank you all (you don't want to hear someone from NYC say "y'all". It sounds like "yawl" LOL). And Ben, I am still available to help you with the Laser (if needed).
