Dear fellow fountainpen-o-philes,
Haven't been on here for a long time, but I'm getting the FP-"itch" again...
Now I know a guy, who makes great ballpoint pens from brass, titanium, damascus steel etc... And I've been bugging him to make a fountain pen.
The question is: are there "kits" available containing pen mechanisms, on which he can make his own barrels & caps?
If yes, could you point me in the right direction? (brand, shop, etc...)
If not, which cheap but good quality pen would you buy and dismantle for the parts?
Thanks in advance for your answers,
Kind regards,
Jos
