    Default dip pens

    Is there anyone in Australia, that the members know of, who sells Dip pen or calligraphy pen kits. They are available in the USA but cannot find them in Australia.

    Regards

    Terry

    Yeah I haven't seen any either. I was hoping to win some in the IAP Birthday Bash from Lou Metcalf, but missed out

    Terry, I have been looking for those as well. All I have found so far is a complete calligraphy kit in one of the $2 shops that has a pen and about 3 or 4 screw in pen knibs. Haven't done anything with it so far.

    Can put up a picture of it if you want.

    Is this what you were after?



    I bought 100 and still haven't used one.

    I'll let a few go for 40 cents each plus postage.

    Is that just the inserts, or do you have the nibs as well?

    Inserts only. From memory my wife pays $3-10 each for the nibs, she is not home at the moment to check with.

    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.

    Yes, but I want to keep some for myself when I get around to turning some holders for them. You can have 10 for $5.50 including postage.

    Anyone interested in in nibs, holders etc, my wife recommends Wills Quills in Sydney.

    I'll take 10, but you're gonna run out fast at that rate.

    I guess that's 10 less I'd have to turn. Send me an e-mail or PM with you address details and I'll send you account details for funds transfer.

    I'll keep 50 so if anyone else wants to hop in quick, there's still 10 left.
