Thank you. Rather, a vacation for the soul relative to the situation around.

The thread theme does not correspond partially to the content, but I do not want to create a new topic. Ebonite bodies for the Pilot Falcon section supported Con-70 (matte, polished/semi-glossy and lacquered/glossy)

To me, the matter and glossy look gorgeous. I'm sure others will have different preferences.

Thank you🤝

Hello everybody, as I promised, I’m back to you with testing my fountain pen. I made three pens to order, two of them with EF size nib and one with Crisp Italic nib.

Yeah)) Thank you!

[txomsy]

Well, it is a classic design that should have never passed, functional and practical, and I find it refreshing to see modern pens following it for a change. So, thank you for making them and sharing the pictures.

Hi @Andrew_L! That pen looks elegant - congratulations! But more important than the visuals is that you made it for your hand and customised for your writing and drawing style. 

... and now, I'm looking forward to the first drawing you do with this pen ... 😇

MB vibes from your classic looking pen! well done!

Thanks. To create a clip is need to have additional equipment: either a milling machine or laser cutter. I don't have any. I was ready to buy other manufacturing clips, but it turned out that there are only clips produced in India on the market that I don't like and I don't want to buy them. So no clips yet. By the way, I don't use any clip on any my pens, because I hold all my pens in cases))

What about a roll-stop like on, amongst others, Nakayas? I also never use a clip, but I do like my pen not to roll away when just put down on my desk.

Try putting them where they can't roll away.  Works for me.
