Hello there. I'm not totally new (still inexperienced) to the fountain pen world as I have some Lamys, mostly Safaris, and a CP1, Logo. I use fountain pens since I was a kid, and I started with a Lamy. So, I decided to make my own fountain pens, this is my first try with a 3d printer: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3812007 I'm here because I need info, especially suggestions about books to read (PDF, ebooks...). I need to know how a fountain pen is made, how the feed works, so that I can attempt to replicate one. Currently I'm following this blog: https://fountainpendesign.wordpress.com/ I found a lot of useful stuff in there.

Pen Design Using Reclaimed Lumber, 3D Printer
ReclaimedPens posted a topic in Pen Turning and Making
I just launched a Kickstarter campain to design and sell fountain pens using reclaimed and salvaged wood from Kentucky and Pennsylvania. I'm working on spreading the word and trying to get my project noticed. The key features of my pens are that they are made from reclaimed lumber and I am combining traditional pen making methods with new 3D printing technology. By using a 3d printer I can add highlights and add outlines in any size and color I choose. I believe this is a new idea and method with pen designing as I haven't seen anyone else use this process before. I would appreciate if you would check out my project and provide me with any feedback. Thanks Doug https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/867194602/reclaimed-wood-pens- 1 reply
