Here's another amazing blank from Keith, thanks buddy! Cool  I affectionately call it 'Pinstripe'...I grew up directly beside an automotive paint/bodyshop and have vivid memories of watching pinstripes being meticulously painted by hand on a 'Ford Model T', so this pen reminds me of that Grin Wink

I should add that the way the blank has been made, the 'stripes' match up no matter how the cap is screwed on...very cool!

Peter, believe it or not the same guy that owned the bodyshop next door to us also had a warehouse with well over a hundred 'Model T's in various states of disrepair, so every once in a while he would bring one in and do a resto on it, pretty amazing stuff, sure wish I had pics of some Sad Cool

Johan, I haven't been on the forums much as I've been working some long days.  As slow as work was Jan/Feb I had to take the opportunity and run with it when things picked up in March.
