Evening pen friends.

Hope you’re all keeping well.

I’ve made a load of fountain pens recently but thought this was worth sharing. Apologies if I’ve shown one like this before. I find myself sticking to the materials I like now so maybe the variety of my output will diminish as a result.

It’s Mazzucchelli Poseidon which isn’t easy to turn. Heat builds up faster than with more standard acrylics and it can cause melting. Which nobody wants.

Anyway it came out well. Jowo nib, 13mm triple lead with a chrome clip. The customer went for the roller clip in the last couple of photos. And I think he was right.

Cheers
Ash
