Want to make a fountain pen for a lady but don’t want to make anything big or chunky, slimmer the better. Any suggestions friends?

Mistral has the slimmest barrel on the market. You are governed by the fact that they need a cartridge or converter so the section will have to accommadate that size.

Get the barrel nice and not fat and ugly and you'll end up with a slim pen.

Don't overthink that because its for a lady it needs to be smaller.

Kitless sections are a lot thicker than kits pens and the "Ladies" buy them
