Twist Action Ballpoint – Patriot Swirl 230704

spydasweb — Thu, 06 Jul 2023 10:50:49 +0000

This contemporary looking twist action ballpoint was made using a multi coloured acrylic blank. The swirling iridecent blue background with white and red waves colours this interesting and eye catching effect.

The metal fittings have a highly polished chrome finish to contrast with the highly polished multi-colour body.

By holding the body and rotationg the chrome top car the writing tip can be moved in or out.

To change the refill simply hold the body firmly in one hand and unscrew the chrome tip. Carefully slide out the ‘Parker’ style refill being careful not to lose the spring.
Replacement is simply a case of reversing this process. (See photo for details)

A black Parker type refill is fitted as standard, but can easy be changed by carefully unscrewing the lower black section from the coloured part of the pen. This standard refill can be purchased at most stationary stores.

The pen in the picture is the one you will receive. If you are interested in multiple pens, please contact us. Since each pen is a unique work of art, exact duplicates are not possible. But, we will do our best to create duplicates of the pen, using the same wood and finish.

Vertex Ball Point Pen Chocolate Swirl & Gold – 711025

spydasweb — Tue, 05 Dec 2017 15:19:25 +0000

This unique pen came about following an enquiry from Athens. The specification was for 22ct gold plated fittings but with either a dark blue or brown acrylic body. Following email conversations the client decided on this chocolate swirl acrylic body. I must admit I wasnt sure about the choice of colour initially , but seeing the finished pen I think the finished pen looks very sumptuous and regal.

Key Ring Pen – Green with Yellow Swirl – 707009

spydasweb — Wed, 26 Jul 2017 18:56:47 +0000

Having made a few key ring pens which proved very popular. I decided to make this as a commission as a gift for my wife’s friend
This particular pen is made from attractive green with yellow swirl pattern acrylic.
The material blank is cut to make the two parts of the pen body. These two blanks are then turned on a wood lathe to the required diameters to fit the 22ct gold plated fittings.
Once the shape has be completed they are sanded smooth using several grades of wet & dry abrasive paper finishing with 1600 grit. Micromesh abrasive is then used in various grade ending up with 12000 grit. Cutting paste is then applied whilst the lathe is spinning and is then buffed to a high gloss. Once complete the various components are assembled using a ‘Parker Mini’ type refill.
The writing tip is extended by twisting the upper and lower body halves, then the opposite rotation to retract for safety. To replace the refill the upper and lower body parts are carefully pulled apart to allow the refill to be removed.

A premium double-twist mechanism operates the black Cross type refill that is fitted as standard..

However, this can easy be changed by carefully unscrewing the two halves of the pen apart. A standard Cross type refill can be purchased at most stationary stores.

The pen in the picture is the one you will receive. If you are interested in multiple pens, please contact us.
