    Pen spare parts

    I just wondered if any of our suppliers sell spare parts for kits not tubes but the kit bits themselves. The reason I ask I have screwed up a couple of Mistrals that went wrong and trying to correct I damaged some of the pen components. I also have a bag full of TM kits bits that did not go well...

    Sales Virginity

    As a lot of you already know I am turning pens for enjoyment and selling any of them would be in the distant future. I would go as far as saying selling has not even entered my thoughts. Today folks, I have accepted payment in full for 5 pens :banana: Someone seen my photo's for the new series...

    Looks like TM has ceased sell and to restock the Alpha pen kits. The picture and page to that kit is no long available. Nothing on his site to why they are no longer there. Kelvin

    Stainless Ballpoint kit?

    I’m not overly fond of the plating on many kits so have any of you seen any stainless steel kits out there? I’m thinking of a one piece twist ballpoint but open to other suggestions.
