Green Bamboo & Resin Fountain Pen - B Grade (20% off)

If you'd like to see the full process of how this pen was made, check out the link here: https://youtu.be/9vUZ9WnyFw0

This fountain pen was made from pieces of 1" bamboo and epoxy resin with green mica pigment. The pen was finished with 12 coats of thin cyanoacrylate (thin super glue), making it highly durable, virtually waterproof, and stain resistant. The owner of this pen should be cautious about letting it fall on hard surfaces, though, such as concrete, tile, or stone, as the finish may scratch or even crack. This pen comes with a disposable ink cartridge (black ink) and a reusable ink pump that can be used with any ink colour preference you may have.

Imperfections and Price Reduction

During the turning process, a small part of the bamboo/resin blank (cap piece) chipped off, exposing the brass tubing beneath. The hole was sealed with CA glue, and the clip of the cap was positioned over this area, further obscuring the chipped portion. A photo has been provided to show what the damage looks like beneath the clip, and due to this flaw, this pen will be offered at 20% off it's normal price.

Cleaning & Maintenance

For dust and dry debris, this pen should be cleaned off with a soft microfiber cloth or towel. If applying water to the towel, be sure to quickly dry the pen off once finished cleaning. While the cyanoacrylate finish is completely waterproof, this finish is only present on the outside of the pen and not in the seams between the bamboo/resin portions and the metal kit parts (thus, water may seep inside). For any light scratches that may develop on the pen with prolonged or heavy use, the original gloss can be restored by using a micro fine polishing paste, such as a plastic polish, or an automotive polishing product, such as Meguiars PlastX Plastic Cleaners.

DO NOT use any product containing acetone or similar solvents as these products will dissolve the pen finish.
