Water, Water Everywhere



Here is another of the Cool Mint Water Cigar style fountain pens.    Having fun working on these transparent acrylics.  Takes well over twice as long to do a pen in this material, but pretty eye-catching result :-)



This one is fitted in the picture with a fine nib, but I will be doing a custom grind to EF or possibly EEF.


Going to have to find some other colours to work on…

  1. Hi Ken, Just doing a periodic check-in to see what you're up to. I guess I haven't been to your site in a while because I don't remember seeing this one. Love it. And love the fact that you're getting in EF nibs (and extra-EF???).

    1. Great to hear from you, Terry!

      Ya, I have been doing a lot of custom nib grinds lately - including (among many others) grinding a F to an EF or even EEF (where possible - some nibs are just too wet to make a good EEF).
