Dad, I need a fountain pen that doesnt have a thread on it cos the prats at school keep pushing the tops of my pens on with slap of their palm and it keeps stripping the threads. Can you make me one with a magnetic clip on top.
So here it is, No 2 son has got through about six fountain pens, the first bit the dust as it was used as a dart, the second confiscated and lost as it was used to flick ink, and the story goes on, so how long this one will last gawd only knows.
For those of you who havent turned one of these before, (its my first of these), its very angular, the nib end is awkward to hold, the kit goes together simply and quickly, and the magnet is nice and strong. The clip is spring loaded so putting it in a pocket is easy. The blank is revolting, but at least he shouldnt lose it.
