    Default Re: What Pen Have You Converted To An Eyedropper?

    I converted a Jinhao 159 to eye dropper... using acrylic medium to line the inside of the barrel (its aluminum), gasket and silicon grease. Its working so far. Will post a video at some point when I have more time on Youtube to show how its done.

    The basic mechanics are as follows:

    Step 1) you take the barrel and wipe the inside clean with rubbing alcohol to remove any grease and dirt... let dry
    Step 2)Pour acrylic medium into the barrel and tap it a bit to remove any bubbles
    Step 3)Let it sit for 5 mins....
    Step 4)pour out the excess.... as much as possible so only a thin coating remains inside....
    Step 5) take a wet Q-tip and wipe off the threads....then...
    Step 6)take a hair drier and gently dry the acrylic medium... it will go from white to clear when dry....
    Step 7) repeat steps 2 through 6
    Step 8) grease threads add gasket
    Step 9) ink up
    step 10) scribble away...
