Hi,
this is a new to me anyway, Tetra stylus it.
I'm quite impressed for a cheapish kit, it feels very nice in the hand.
The bottom barrel is probably a bit too bulbous but it feels more substantial and better quality than it probably is.
Takes a parker style refil and i like the way the double twist mechs screw rather than pull off so the greasy covered part is permanently hidden as in other kits.
Copied 'This New Stylus features an advanced soft nano silver fabric micro-knit fiber tip that won't scratch or smudge your touch-screen surface; much smoother than you regular rubber/sponge tip. Bottom-line – it’s ultra accurate and responsive performance, including the ability to work at any screen angle with less pressure required for each movement. The Tetra™ stylus pen has a high sensitivity, soft, and Omni directional point tip, it glides smoothly across large or small touch-screens and enhances your ability to draw, sketch and write on any touch screen apps'
C an C as always welcome.

Pete,

Haven't seem that kit, where did you get it? Looks very good, agree on the bulbous bit, not a fan of any sausage style slimline.

That's a new PSI kit if memory serves. I like the idea of the mesh stylus - looks like it might wear better than rubber.

Cracking job on it, mate!

Very nice looking kit & a lovely pen :thumbs:

A quick google suggests they are only available in America :nooidea: & are around the $10 mark, I'd definitely be interested in some if they were available over this side of the pond at that price when the exchange rate is taken into account & weren't as usually happens the same price in £s as they are in $s.

Hi,

thanks for comments chaps.
Neil, i needed some blanks for a job and bought two from Exotic blanks as they were the only ones that had the blanks. I think they are bit cheaper 10 plus from William woodwrite in Canada.
I will hopefully need some myself if a job i have been quoting for and organising bits of, for what seems like months, comes off.
They were about $10 so not the most budgety of budget pens, but honestly they feel like better quality than they perhaps are.

the kit comes with a ten gun salute and a declaration that it is the sliced bread for the tip user yes the style suits I have found so many people handling pens shaped that way spend quite some time admiring the feel of the pen. Value is in the turnover and the set price in the lap of as well. One thing for sure if Exotic Blanks stock it they have given that choice a lot od thought Ed is very careful.

Has a few neat features inside and could be an answer for the techos.

Kind regards Peter.:thinks::rolling:

Tis a nice looking kit Peter, i like the idea of screwing off the top barrel as i have had a few comments from people that like to look and feel before buying on how hard it is to remove this barrel .. Nice looking pen also my friend .. :bwink:

That is a very nice pen Pete. I haven't seen this kit before either but its one that looks ok with a stylus thingy where a lot of others don't. Nicely turned and finished.
