    Default Not your usual suspects :)

    had an order for a double circuit board rollerball pen,the only "standard doubles" are for cigar pens ,so I modified a couple of GPW blanks to suit a "Premium classic ) roller ball, these kits are not top notch with metal to metal threads and rubber "O" rings to keep them from coming loose (I left them off ,but will supply with pen in case needed. The other is a Handicapped prototype for small hands utilizing a credit card pen kit ,all hand shaped.I chose camphor Laurel for lightness and ease of working cheers ~ John

    Both gorgeous but that looks a nice pen for those that don’t like the thick pen, I knew about the circuit board sierra from froggie at addictive pen kits. I ordered some last night but not heard anything is that an abandoned website now or is ran by someone else?

    Don't hold your breath on Froggy, he posted a while back he was giving up his pen business I seem to recall. This pen was made from blanks from Gary pye HERE ! he has some different colors as well These are able to be turned a lot smaller than the standard ones for sierra vistas , I found for this example I could glue the tubes from the classic rollerball kit inside the circuit boards to get the right fitting size ,then trim to length accordingly . I have just done an Elegant beauty as well that also needed the tube glued inside for the EB fittings ,the things we do to please hehe, cheers ~ John
