Make a dip pen, How?

[ni9eofse7en]

Routing through the old mans shed t'other day and my lad found a box of 'football pen nibs' , so here's me thinking how do you make a dip pen, or to be more precise what do you use to hold/grip the nibs in to the hole?

Hi, John,

You can buy dip pen kits, matey. Try fun-e-turnz on ebay.

You need inserts like in this link.
After that you are limited to your imagination.

Could not find anything on ebay or under fun e turnz. Did find SteamPunk Glass - Online Shop For Dip Pen Nibs. Thanks guys.

Took me back forever ago but all nibs then went into inserts like Mark says on Google.
