24.01.2022 $100 Erriapus Black "Ice" Acrylic Fountain Pen. This was from the original batch of my new pens (it must have doubled in value by now right?). The original customer didn't love the colour so we are swapping it for a different one, so this one is now available again. It has been inked a couple of times, but it will be fitted with a new nib and feed prior to shipping. Comes with your choice of Jowo #6 nib. ... Postage $10, Express postage $13

23.01.2022 $130 "Bestla" Resin Fountain Pen This is a new range of pens that will be either made from Resin or Ebonite. The blanks for this pen were supplied by The Burl Shed.

20.01.2022 Very special blank showed up today. It is a piece of White Oak that was harvested from the tree at at the end of the Shawshank Redemption. The tree was damaged in a storm in 2011 and eventually got blown over in another storm in 2016. Saving this blank for something special, not quite sure what yet. There is not much of this wood left in supply and is quite expensive to buy.... Can read more about the tree here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shawshank_tree?wprov=sfla1

18.01.2022 Four pens available this morning. *****Sold 1, 2, 3,4***** 1, 2 - Erriapus Pens $125ea+postage... 3, 4 - Enceladus pens $150ea+postage 1 - Magenta pink Pearl pen, amazing Pearl effect in this material. 2 - Strawberry Red Pearl pen. Out in the sunlight this looks like it's on fire! 3 - Black with hints of Purple Diamonddust pen. The purple is very subtle and I couldn't get it to show in a photo at all. But at certain angles in the light there is some amazing purple colours coming through. 4 - YlnMn blue Diamonddust pen. YlnMn is a new blue pigment only recently discovered. It has been exclusively licensed to the company that makes the Diamonddust blanks and this is a new release blank. I believe this is first Fountain Pen to be made in Australia from it. As always, all pens come with a Jowo #6 nib in your choice of Extra Fine, Fine, Medium or Broad and Gold or Chrome colours. Postage $10, Express postage $13.

17.01.2022 "Fordite" Thrmyr Fountain Pen. I believe this is an Australian first for a Bespoke Fountain Pen, it is made from what is known as Fordite. Fordite comes from the spray booths in the Car factories. Over many years layers of paint build up on the walls which is then scrapped off and cut up.... It is a prized (and very expensive) crafting material for pen makers, jewellers and other crafters. It is very difficult to work with on a lathe as the layers of paint are only held together by the adhesion of the paint itself, no glue involved. What you can't really see from the photos is the sparkle from the high quality automotive paint they use it in it. Lots of great close up details in it. Currently this one is not for sale.

15.01.2022 Gillette Fusion compatible Resin Razors ***Relisted*** 1-6 $35 each + Postage... 7-10 $40 each + Postage Each one comes with 1 disposable Gillette Fusion blade. 7,8&9 are diamonddust ones and 10 is a transparent prism blank.

Standard Postage $10, express postage $13

09.01.2022 Been a while, so here are some random blanks I have. These are pictured in pairs as I need to 2 blanks to make the current pens.

08.01.2022 My first Fordite pen. This will be my new work pen. So it's not for sale. The colours on it are amazing and you can't see it from the photos, but most of the layers of paint are metallic paint and they have a great shimmer to them, especially the silver layers. This is really one of those pens you have to see up close to fully appreciate.... Certainly wasn't the easiest material to work with. Keep an eye out, once I get a bit more caught up on all my orders Ill look at making some more of these.

07.01.2022 More fun with Polymer Clay, nice sparkly purple with butterfly's.

07.01.2022 Sneak preview of the pens for Sunday morning up on my Instagram page. Go check it out (and follow me while you're there)

06.01.2022 **Sold** Looking for someone to test this pen for me and provide feedback on it, selling at discounted price. $15+ Postage with budget Chinese M nib, or $30+ post with Jowo #5 nib. It is Demonstrator style, but not perfectly clear (inside is too narrow to polish up effectively) ... Standard Postage $10 or pickup 4130

06.01.2022 Fresh off the plane from the US, two new Diamonddust blanks (amongst others). These particular two are special as they feature the new blue pigment YlnMn and as far as I know they haven't been used for a pen in Australia yet. Hard to describe how they look in the flesh, such a great blue. Look out for one of these this weekend!

06.01.2022 **Sold** $65 Hairy Oak Test Pen. This pen was a test to try out methods and to work out measurements for materials for an upcoming range of pens.... When I have these pens ready they will list for $125+ depending on the materials used. I didn't quite get the proportions of the materials right on the cap, too much black and not enough wood. Please note it is a bit larger and slightly heavier than the usual pens I've been making recently. Please see the last photo for size comparison. Price includes standard Australian postage and Jowo #6 nib.

05.01.2022 My first Ebonite Bespoke Fountain Pen. Customer request and off to him soon. Ebonite is a hard rubber, which gives it a different feel and look to other pen making materials. It's also quite a traditional pen making material.

05.01.2022 Mucking around with Polymer Clay today, made this one using some flower Canes I got from another pen maker. These are really fun to make!

05.01.2022 **Seconds sale** **Sold** $35 for both Inc standard postage. Couple of pens for sale that didn't quite "make the grade" from when I was trying out a new pen style.... Both pens included in the price, will not separate. Pens sold as is, no returns accepted on these. Green pen: Crack in resin on top of the barrel. Bit of glue leaked out on the cap finial. Black Gold pen: Crack at the bottom of the cap in the Resin, partly hidden by the clip. These pens have been sat on my desk for a couple of months now. Cracks haven't changed in that time, but there is the possibility that they might. It cracked on assembly of the pens. Not from use or being dropped or anything like that. They will also both have the standard stock nibs, not the upgraded German nibs.

02.01.2022 Check out this beautiful matching pair of Pens made by Cameron. Make sure you go over and follow his page for so you can see his future creations.
