    Default Hello from Philly!

    Hello! I'm Ashley and I'm an Industrial Design student in Philly. Unfortunately I missed out on the bulk of the pen show last week and only got to spend an hour there ): I got into fountain pens a few months ago at the same time as my SO. Funny how we thought we'd only each stick with a single workhorse but ended up with 8 between the two of us. I'm hoping my next pen will be a Wahl ring-top.

    I'm also looking to design and make my own pen for my senior capstone. So if any of you wise folks would like to share your knowledge with me, I'm a sponge!
