Custom Clipless ED

This was a pen that a customer wanted built around a vintage section.

The first thing I did was to install a sac to see how it filled and wrote.

It filled but did not write so I removed the feed and nib, cleaned them all out and still no ink on the paper.  The feed was bent to I had to heat it up and put it back into place.  Then it wrote.

Threaded the section

Starting the body.

Body threaded

Finished

Pen rest

Another ED Conversion

The problem with this pen was 

"the section hole is too wide for the nib/feed and is also allowing air leakage through the threads with the barrel"

So he had a spare nib unit that I made up a new section, threaded it to take the nib unit.  I also made it to take a converter for him.  I think that it will only be used as a ED so I sealed the threaded nib unit into the section so that hopefully it will work out as an ED

On the original section there was a small O ring added, but then the section would not sit tight to the body of the pen.

By making a step inside the body I was able to get it so the O ring sets just inside so the section sits tight to the body now.
