I have posted a demonstrator to my gallery. http://www.penmakersguild.com/browse.php?gallery=grayb&page=1 If you've never attempted this, it's no easy task. I...
You did a very nice job with the interior polish, as far as I can tell from the photo! I imagine doing a demonstrator is sort of a personal challenge, a test...
//So how did you end up polishing the insides?// A custom brass mandrel. A little smaller then the diameter of the inside. Then slit the end so you can...
Thanks, I was at that forum once before, just joined so I could see the pen. Before I could just the 1 picture. Anyway - are you tenoning/gluing the clear...
Got another question on that pen on fountainpennetwork. You say the cap posts. Do you have a posted-cap picture? I can't judge diameters of the pen body due...
I haven't posted in quite a while but have been busy with hurricane cleanup and work. I finally got back to the shop for a bit of catching up to try and get ...
Very Cool!!! Especially the internal threads. Also congrats on the IAP covershot. I know what you mean about trying to get the inside clear. It drives you...
Here's a better link http://www.penmakersguild.com/browse.php?gallery=symondsd&page=2 which does not require you to sign in :-) While I admire the workmanship...
Thanks for fixing the link Rich. The pen actually does look better in person. I think the problem is the photographer and not the pen. You can see it in...
Sneaky way to make me search through your album ;-) (Re-)discovered lot of neat stuff in the process though so I should thank you :-) Not sure whether I...
LOL, Sorry Rich, I was busy trying to move them around while you posted the link. :) I'm a bit of a techno-phobe when it comes to posting and can't seem to get...
... Since yahoo fora are not fully threaded, we don't much care about hijacking threads here. To tell you the honest truth, the toughest part was trying to...
I, too am happy to revisit your gallery, I've been missing some things...excellent innovative designs! I am going back, now. ... From: Richard Kleinhenz To:...
Though not my favorite color, the execution is superior. I missed how you accomplished the thread making procedure and will review the process in the prevoius...
Glen: Thanks for the comments. The color is not my favorite either but it was the material I had. :-) As far as the threads go, I mill the threads on a...
I have posted a photo of an American Double Twist in my gallery. A modified kit pen is neither as exciting nor on the same level of skill and quality as the...
Apologies... it's the *1st* picture - I concentrated at the last ones! ... -- Best regards, Rich ============================================= Richard...
Hi everybody ! I need help ! I saw in the gallery a lot of no-kit pen and this is what I want to do, I want to make a pen with less metal as possible, what...
There is a group buy forming over at the IAP for tap and die sets. This is the section that i think you are refering to. I will let others jump in here on howw...
Hi MJ, I don't think there is a specific tutorial. If you want to hide more parts - there are a couple of articles on penmakersguild.com in the article...
I just recieved my Italic 1.1 nibs in from Germany. These are a replacement nib for small size nibs, for Jr's Barons etc. 14K all yellow gold 1.1 italic. Broad...
Hi all, I hope everyone is well I was just contimplating the current group buy over on IAP and I thought I remembered someone here was going to do one? Did it...
... Well I do now Steve. {:-] Read all about the battle between the red dragon and the white dragon, and King Vortigern and the boy with no natural father and...
Along with 'Free Cymru' or however it is spelled exactly :-) ? I'm having a hard time seeing the graphic details (my eye problems, not your photography...)...
Rich, the clip is ridgid. I flattened one side of the 'handle' to make it sit better on the blank and drilled two holes to accept two Hammer Rivets. I had to...
I wish it was elective surgery, since then I could have said no... I have only 1 functioning eye, and that has a retina detachment. Right in the middle......
Yes, The group buy that I started was voluntarily assumed by Daniel, who has a contact that can save the group a fair sum of money. Watch for the details...
