I got a new pen!!!! :) This is the year of the custom pen I suppose because this is my second very special custom pen. Review with lots, and lots of pictures available on my website (http://wp.me/p6twCI-2J).

I really recommend Shawn, he was lovely to work with the whole process and even discovered a billing error and sent me money back! He has definitely gotten more busy and I had to wait a while, but you know that just makes it a big like Christmas when a box arrives out of the blue and there' something highly anticipated inside. ;)

Your pen is beautiful. Such a dream to get the perfect nib from a vague eBay listing. Congrats!!!

Congrats.... it's beautiful.

MMMmmmmmmmmmm So are you going to eyedropper it or use the converter?

No way to use a converter with a nib and feed like this! A converter requires a nib unit built to attach to the converter. There is no nib unit, Shawn just built a section that friction fits the nib and feed. Eye dropper is the only possibility.

Yeah, pretty much. Friction fit nibs and feeds can be built using eyedropper, button or piston filler.
