What Indian Pens Are You Using Today?

[flummoxed]

I am testing today my Asa french Vermillon laquered ébonite fountain pen prototype, made with the kind help and advices from Fountainpagan It was almost perfect, until I realised I messed up with the threads, will have to make a second one ...

Great work Velvet. Will wait eagerly for more pictures and information about durability.

Here are some more photos. Photos are diffucult to take, because, I need lot of light for my 1 inch sized sensor camera. And the color of the pen varies a lot due to alizarine pigments, it goes from dark red, to very bright one in full light. Forgive me the dust on the pen and the polishing which I did with my hand and not with a lathe that wished to have.

Job well done

[L.Velvet]

Thanks

 

 

On this the pen was not meant to be laquered, you can see the lines, of the band of the

cap. The next version ( will come in some months If I can get the protoype II ) will be an upgraded version on every single side.

[fountainpagan]

Very nice job, Velvet.

 

Keep on.

Thanks, to you both, Fountainpagan she helped my everyday since I started to paint ( for almost 20 days now )

 

And thanks for Mr. Subramanian , I bought the pen from you, and will have to order probably a second one.

A second one is ready...let me know :-)

[fountainpagan]

Wawoo, that is very nice of you, Mr Subbu.

[L.Velvet]

Oh thanks mr Subramanian ! I am in !

I've been trying out a few different inks recently, that I don't want to risk using in my more expensive pens, so... here they are (all fitted with FPR stub nibs, for maximum juiciness!):
