    Default UPDATED - Roman Harvest Pen kits - without the evil black band

    Roman Harvest Pen Kits 1.jpg
    Hi Everyone

    By Popular demand and consultation with quite a few pen turners, we have updated the pen to remove the evil black band. As part of the process we have changed the name to a more descriptive name - Roman Harvest Pen kits.

    I have a WWF special- $18AUD Roman Harvest Pen Kits. Normal price is $25AUD

    Price is for a single pen kit. Rollerball and Fountain pen versions are the same price.

    Plating is Gold Titanium with Rhodium highlights.

    The fountain pen features a Iridium Point Germany nib or a Schmidt 888F rollerball refill.

    This pen kit is made in Taiwan to high specification especially for Timberbits.

    Sterling silver is now rarely used in pen making. Sterling silver is an extremely cheap metal plating compared to Rhodium. Sterling silver is less that a $30 an ounce compared to over $2,500 an ounce for Rhodium.

    Sterling silver is getting used less and less as a pen plating because sterling silver will tarnish over time. Rhodium will not tarnish over time.

    This pen kits is made from solid brass pieces. The only plastic bit used in this kits is for the female thread hidden within the gold centerband. It is necessary to use the nylon thread because it helps the lid secure the pen in place. A metal on metal thread will result in the plating wearing away very quickly.

    Coupon Code - "WWFSPECIAL" please put that into the discount coupon code during the payment option screen, then click apply and it will lower to price to $18AUD.

    Postage amounts is - $12AUD flat rate shipping (regardless of how much you buy) to the US, UK, NZ and Canada - this is economy airmail and can take up to 20 working days. FREE postage for all order over $200AUD to these 4 countries. Expedient shipping is also available at a higher rate.

    FREE shipping for order over $200AUD within Australia.

    $24AUD flat rate shipping to most other European countries.

    Please visit our website - www.timberbits.com to purchase the pen kits.

    Thanks for looking and I hope you take advantage of this great deal.

    This price is almost 40% cheaper than some US seller, not to mention higher grade plating, higher grade refill and NO EVIL BLACK BAND.

    This is a small advance shipment, so 1st come 1st serve. The full shipment will arrive in about 8 weeks time. The reverse plating option will also be available when the full shipment arrives.

    Also if you have purchased this kit from me in the past, I have some spare gold centerbands to replace the back ones. Just let me know how many you want and it is yours FREE - limited to how many you have purchased from me in the past.

    Thanks for looking.

    Regards

    David

    What and improvement

    I'm in Thailand at the moment, but can you put 5 of each (fountain/rollerball) aside for me, then I'll fix you up & arrange delivery when I get back next week. Knowing me, I'll probably add to the order anyway, afterall I only have 300 unmade kits still

    Cheers
