Pelikan 120 Demontrator

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

This weekend, looking at my parts box, I managed to complete an assembly that has been haunting me for quite some time.

Yes, I know about clear demonstrator pens, but how cool is this?

 

Note:

No usable parts were damaged, except for a inner cap.

 

Best regards,

Pedro

Quite interesting to see the pen in cross section. Kind of like the physical representation of fountainbel's wonderful drawings. :)

This is quite cool. Well done and a great job.

 

...but sometimes, you want to show how does work a pen which is just a little bit more valuable that a Pelikan 120' and then...

Quite good.

I'd not realized the rubber between the piston cap and piston head.

Thanks for your feedback.

 

I agree that a drawing is sufficient, even if one has one third of the sketching ability Christof and others have accustomed us to ;)

But I had the damaged parts to use for this, and it turned out a cool little gadget that I will cherish in my humble inventory.

 

I found quite intresting to see how the clear acrylic window is joined to the green body, I'd always thought they were a single piece, tinted on the opaque length.

Indeed, this is interesting. Also the area where the section is connected to the barrel. I have never seen this before. Thanks for the education.

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
