It is my understanding that the patent numbers you were discussing relate to the filling mechanism and the clip (each where the number is printed) not the pen itself. Good vid. Keep at it!

@markbyrum4743 You are correct, those were the patents for the filling system and cap, not the pen itself. Thank you for watching and taking the time to leave a comment.

Beautiful resin, in my mind it resembles Abalone. Also beautiful gesture you giving to the charity of the pen donors choice.

I’ve REALLY been wanting to try a Monoc nib. Just can’t square the almost $600 for the nib and pen combo I want. As you said- if I could try one it would be a different story.

100 yer 10o year old nib! thats impressive in my book. J. Herbin makes some really cool inks, I like them a lot.

@perfectplume11 күн бұрын
Is the Monac nib easy to add to the Leonardo ? I believe you have the caramel finish on the Leo.
@ZenofThePen11 күн бұрын
Yes, the Monac nib is a Jowo 6... the nib itself is the housing, it's one complete unit, but screws in just as any other jowo 6 housing would. Thanks for the clue on the resin name!

I saw a few Oparex pens at the D.C Pen Show; one at Rich's table. So I wanted to learn about the material and searched and surprise; I found this interview. Interesting content. I'm a big fan of Bob Dupras ( corrl_creations) resins as well. I met Bob at the show. He is an incredibly nice person. I recently purchased one of Rich's Morningside pens; made from a Bob Dupras resin. I enjoy hearing what motivates people, so thanks for the video.

The Conklin has beautifull resin for an 80 years old pen.
@ZenofThePen21 күн бұрын
Right? Many resins this old have discoloration... in fact that's one reason the restorer used a silicone sac, as latex might cause the resin discoloration. Downfalls of silicone mean it's not quite as airtight when inked + stored nib down. So I keep it in a nib up position on the desk when inked. Worth the preservation of history though.
