Inkograph and Esterbrook Conversion

The first one is a inkograph drafting pen that has some really nice coloring that I thought would make a really nice fountain pen.

This is the section that came with the pen

This is the section made up

End result

Very happy with how it all turned out

The Esterbrook was a felt tipped marker that I converted to take a Pilot refill.

I think it took some sort of ink cartridge

Built a new section to take the new nose cone.

Looking good

A Tale Of Two Sections

I had a couple sections floating around, a Cross and a Pilot.  With a bit more vintage material I had on hand decided to make up a body to hold them both.

This material is made by wrapping it around a rod so you have to deal with working a tube material.  It is a bit hard to see but the end is a tortoise material and when it is held up to the light it is transparent.

The Cross

The Pilot

So depending on my mood I have a choice of two nibs to use.

I once again used a Here slip on cap.

I am almost through my stash of caps honest.
