Zen Fountain Pen

Chuck Key · Mar 2, 2008

Made this one for personal use and to test the reaction in the non penturning community. So far it has been quite positive unlike the cool reception within this community. Time will tell.

I didn't know there was a FP kit for the Zen. Is it custom?

Best I've seen!!

Nice one Chuckie

Looks like I need to take the cap apart

Ok.. fess up! Is this the cap from the RB?? What did you remove to make that section fit? I like the kit and looks, but want the FP version.

Buzz · Mar 2, 2008

I really like the look of this one too. I also thought the kit was only available as a rollerball.

It looks like the cap was altered to make it fit over the longer FP nib. I'm not a huge fan of the resulting look. Also, I think that the indentation where the blank meets the cap would lay uncomfortably against my hand as I tried to write with it. I tend to grip a pen fairly tightly and I think this would bug me.
