panda88888 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 If there is a FPN edition I will buy one or two as well. I like the idea of engraving of Fountain Pen Network, Special Edition. P.S. I'll also get 筆閣 edition as well. :roflmho: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holgalee Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Looks cool! Is the white text on black background that says "Twsbi" a slip of paper or part of the cap/section? Do you have a close up view of that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lanceallen Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 (edited) Your 1/20 update has some new molds. It sounds like your are fixing all of the problems you have found. Do you have any more re-tooled items you are waiting for? The new packaging looks cool. I like how you are storing items underneath the logo area. How close are you to going into production? I want to get one and am getting excited! http://www.bbs.twsbi.com/viewthread.php?tid=168&extra=page%3D1 Edited February 1, 2010 by lanceallen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for screaming, but beware, I could kiss you for this... I have a long tme friend in Germany who interested in selling this pen for me in Europe; from some internet store he will setup. I am preparing 300 sets of final parts for first small batch run, if everything confirmed ok, then I will go into mass production of around 5,000 pens of first large scale run. The first test of 2nd package upper/lower case will be performed in a few days... The 1st package box we are also running some modification for easy ejection from tooling...Actually many things are going everyday, being a responsible manufacturer we have to confirm everything (as much as we can) before we should ship out product to the customer. The performance of last modification we done on nib filler adaptor is not as idea as we expect, so we still need to do more testing and maybe come out with another solution (not a difficult new solution, but just need a little more time).

hari317 Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 (edited) Speedy, I really look forward to seeing your pen in the market, I think we will finally have a genuinely well made product at a reasonable cost. Do you have plans to market these pens in India? BTW are you making your nibs in Taiwan or are they being imported from Europe? I just saw the earlier posts where it is mentioned that the Nibs are from Schmidt. Best,Hari Edited February 4, 2010 by hari317 In case you wish to write to me, pls use ONLY email by clicking here.
