Pelikan size comparison

Recently a good friend of mine was so generous as to loan me some of his gorgeous pens to "test-drive". I was thinking of reviewing them but there are already so many reviews out there so I thought I'd do something a little different. I decided to do a quick little size comparison showing the difference between the (seemingly) most popular Pelikan models. The Pelikans featured here are the m400, m600, and m800. Accompanying them is a beautiful Sailor 1911 and my Parker 51.

It's finally here! - The long awaited bamboo dip pen tutorial!

Took me a long while to get around to making this but I've finally done it! The hands in this tutorial are those of my brother. He's the one who makes the dip pens and introduced me to the idea. This tutorial will show how we make our bamboo dip pens. If you're able to get a hold of bamboo and some basic hand-tools then follow along and enjoy!

Another New Video! - Parker 51, under the hood!

Here's a new version of an old "tutorial" of mine. It's not so much to show how to remove a 51 hood but it does tell how anyway...

This is mainly to show the anatomy of a 51 hood, nib, feed, and collector. For those who are interested I hope you enjoy this!

New Video! - The innards of a Sheaffer Vac-Fill!

Here's a pen that once broken down is easy to understand. However, there's a lot of confusion when people try to describe it without proper pictures or with complex drawings. I thought I'd try and make a little more sense with this video here. Hope this helps.

Note: In the video you will hear me speak of a link to a reference on vac-fillers. Here is the link.

Also, forgive my cheap camera footage. It's not so great... :) At least you can see what I'm doing though!

If you enjoyed this video please drop me a comment below! If you didn't enjoy this video please also drop me not and tell me how I can improve. I'd love to hear your suggestions!
