opposites in black

[Grant Wilkinson]

The cross pen is a stock slimline kit.

The cartridge pen started out life as a Perfect Fit twist pen, but I only use the transmission, the tubes and the clip. The rest is a 30.06 cartridge and copper bullet.

For the cartridge, do you have any "how I done it's" type photos or notes? I would like to know a little more about your match up and the process you used on the cartridge and pen. I know guys that would love to have one of those.

Nice work.

[Grant Wilkinson]

Thank you, Phillip

I have some rough notes that I had planned to clean up so that I have a master plan for the next ones. As soon as I've done that, I can send them to you. Suffice to say, they are a bit of a pain to do. Each one takes me almost 2 hours, and I don't think I'm slower than the average bear.

No offence, but historically those are not opposite.

[David Drickhamer]

Great looking pen. One of the nicer cartridge pens I've seen. I'd be intrested in the details on how you made it.

[Bernie Weishapl]

Those are beauties. Very nice finish.

[Steve Campbell]

Grant great looking pens. I too would be very interested in the how to's of the cartridge pen. Thanks for showing them

Tim: Your are right, of course. No offence taken.

Great looking pens. The white cross looks good on that dark wood.

For those who are interested, the IAP forum has a couple of excellent tutorials on crafting cartridge pens. I'd attach a link but, well, you know...
