A new section

This pen has a really busted up section with the threads breaking off in the body of the pen.
 I had to remove the front shell to get the ring off for the cap.
Busted Section

 I had no green ebonite in stock so we went with black.  The customer wanted it to have a matte finish so this is what I ended up with.

New Section



All Done

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.

New Section And Nib For An Indian Made ED

I got this one sent to me to make up a new section to hold the customer's nib unit.
He did not like the nib and there were leaking issues so this is what I made up for him.
