This is the first of four Oxford twist pens I'm making for the girls at work. I like the kit, it's inexpensive and easy to assemble, with just one body to turn. Yet it looks really nice. I like the pink and blue blanks with the gold and black on the pen. Very happy with it. Hopefully the rest will turn out just as nice.

Since this kit uses Cross style refills, I used a guide I had made years ago to press the transmission in to the proper depth.
