    Default Help needed with pen kits,

    Hi all,
    Hopefully someone can help me,
    A couple of quick questions,

    1. Does anybody know what the smallest diameter click pen kit is?
    2. Does anyone know what the smallest diameter twist kit is that takes a Parker style refill?

    I have 2 friends that both only like very thin pens (ie. a straight turned slimline)
    One of whom is after a clicker and the other who wants Parker style,

    any info on this, from Australian or from overseas suppliers it would be appreciated,
    Cheers Ben

    Ben

    The thinnest twist pens I know of are slimlines. I haven't looked at click pens but I think you can get one in slimline. They are both 7mm tubes and I have never heard of a tube thinner than that.

    Contact the suppliers who advertise on here and try PSI in the USA (google PSI) and see what you can find out for yourself.

    Research, research and research
