I love this thread. Even when I don't post, I check it at least once a day. :)

 

Here's one I just finished last night and is on my shelf waiting to be cleaned out.

That is some tipping material for sure. What a really cool pen totally drool worthy!

How pretty and sheeny!

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Show us the nib! Is it a piston filler?

 

Oh Oh! Left it in the office, and took out a TWSBI 540 Smoke for the weekend. It is a cartridge/converter pen.

 

Nib is exactly like this (borrowed image) though it is plated steel:

That's a very pretty nib, but that's not a TWSBI nib, and TWSBI's aren't cartridge/converters except the Micarta.... are you sure it's a TWSBI?

OH NO! I would need to go back to my office to pick up the pen. After all I may need that one pen for something.
