My wife asked me to make two pens for gifts. One for someone at USC, the other at UPenn. Both accommodate Bock nibs and are triple starts. Each of which being postable. My stretch on these being the addition of accents since getting my Pepe Tools punch.

I'm very tempted to steal them back from her.

Yep, I'd steal them back. Beautiful.

I have a question about postable pens, over time does posting mar the finish on the body end of a pen, or no?
 
Thank you everyone. It is always fun making them and rewarding seeing the bar all of you keep raising of what can be done in this hobby

Yes, it definitely allows for that possibility. Even if it is the same material posting to one another I think it will happen, especially if there is dust or derby. I use a rotation of my pens constantly and personally do not care about the issue. And in fact don't even use my beautiful Rockster pens because they do not post. - just my 2 cents

I'm not at all against postable, in fact I rather like it, I just wondered if eventually it would rough up the body.
