Hello From Fritzlar, Germany


BomberInk

Recommended Posts

Hello All!

My name is Jens, which is pronounced Yens (like Japanese money with an s at the end!). My forum name is Bomber Ink. The reason for this is that I recently acquired a personal storage box from a WW2 U-Boat commander out of which I am going to make wooden pens and fountain pens. Originally I was going to make them for myself, but since I've started that project I thought it would also be cool to keep making pens out of other WW2 items, so I thought Bomber would be a fitting name and the Ink is a play on words for Inc.

I am 29 years old. Home right now is Fritzlar, Germany. Although I have spent quite some time in North America so I can speak English and German fluently.

 

I'm going to start a thread documenting the process and the history behind the box. Below I added a picture I took of it the other day.

I think that's it for me!

Jens

Welcome to FPN from North Carolina, USA! What an interesting and exciting idea. Hope it turns out. Enjoy your stay!

Whenever you are fed up with life, start writing: ink is the great cure for all human ills, as I found out long ago.

Hello and welcome to FPN, from Cape Town, South Africa.

To sit at one's table on a sunny morning, with four clear hours of uninterruptible security, plenty of nice white paper, and a [fountain] pen - that is true happiness!
