Speedy,

 

Sorry, I can't read the linked page but none the less, I want one maybe 3. I don't have a preference for actual design but laser engraving sounds good to me.

 

Can't wait,

 

Larry

From what I understand, FPN is not going to sponsor or endorse a FPN edition pen but you could release a FPN special edition pen if you want to.

Looking forward to getting a chance to buy. Its also nice to feel a little bit involved in the process.

Not bothered about Special FPN edition though.

Sorry, I'm late coming to this party. This looks like it's going to be fantastic. Where do I get in line for one of these?

cheers

Anyone else here think that Speedy designed his pen to match his computer? I have the same computer. I can't wait to try one of his pens. With Skyppere now interested in one I do believe that the Diamond 530 is on its way to becoming the Almost Official Fountain Pen of the Northern New Mexico Chapter of the Fountain Pen Network's Collectors Collective. If we load our pens with green ink maybe we'll call our pens the Chilé Verde, and if we load them with red ink we'll probably call them the Chilé Rojo. There's even a chance that we'll petition the Governor to adopt the Diamond 530 as our official state pen. Hey, you never know, if our state can have an official cookie, the biscochito, and a motto, "Carpé Manana," then we could have a state pen.

I don't mean to have FPN sponsor or endorse the pen, after all I am the one responsible for the final quality of the product, just that some people mentioned this option maybe the a good as a memory... So I have to double check if we really want to do this.

Understand that I can by my own wish to release a FPN special edition. But due to my poor English, I would appreciate someone can give me a suggestion what to write.

I wish I have this capability, everyone is trying to catch up the apple trend.

Anyhow, I always admire apple's courage on innovation, and value adding design.

That's great - well done.

[youstruckgold]

The Aluminium piston looks great!

 

For engraving, I wouldn't have anything other than either FPN or in full "Fountain Pen Network". Maybe add "Special Edition" or "Limited Edition" (if it is actually limited in number).

[speedy]

Haven't report to you guys for some times, pls refer follow update, thanks.

Thanks for the update. I can hardly wait for the finished product.

Before this I had only a vague idea of how a pen was made. Still don't know alot but know a lot more than I did. Thanks for all the updates and keep'em coming. Tom
