Maclachlan, do you have a site I can look at pen choices at? I think I would like a ball point and fountain set from you. What "guts" (nibs cartridges, fill system ect)do you use in your fountain pens?

For the fountain pens we mostly use medium point quality German-made nib with iridium tips. The price points on those depends on what the pen is made from (i.e. 22k gold/Rhodium, Sterling silver or plated pens). Refills can also vary by pen maker from Hauser to standard el cheapo refills to refillable cartridges.
As for a web site, right now we're still very much a fledgling operation and we haven't yet had a chance to even get a good sample base made because people have been buying what we make too fast (a good thing, I suppose). For now, we get our supplies from Penn State, Woodcraft, Rockler (mostly for the blanks) so if they (or anyone else for that matter) have something you like just let us know.
