I got inspired by Peninkcillin's post from last year about refilling cheap Varsity fountain pens (http://peninkcillin.blogspot.com/2011/07/how-to-refill-your-pilot-varsity.html).

I blogged about it (http://carolepivarnik.com/ccpart/2012/11/04/varsity-makeover/), if you'd like to read a bit more about this approach. I'm pretty happy with the results and will probably make over all my Varsity pens this way. Because I don't mind using a cheap pen but it doesn't have to be cheap AND ugly!
