I was getting requests for alternatives to the Pilot Parallel as Amazon does not ship everywhere, and this is the solution. This will allow you to make your own #blackletter broad edge pen from scratch. They are pretty durable if you make them carefully, and can last a while.
Things you'll need:
1. Cola can
2. Metal cutter (scissor will work but will dull them)
3. Needle or pin
4. Wood or some form of handle
5. Adhesive (tape)
6. Wood cutter/slot maker
7. Ruler/marker
8. Sandpaper
9. INK to write with

Np Jesus, I'm glad it helps you :)
Not bad. I was wondering if a thinner saw may have been better. I understand it’s a makeshift. You have actually provided some wonderful ideas. Cheers!
ok got it --brilliant idea ---let me get cracking with that 2 inch high lettered SHOOL SIGN thankyou for the great idea --! appreciate !
Its a SCHOOL sign post in dusty rural Africa -----thankyou !
How about thinned out black enamel paint --on primed metal surface --for ROAD SIGNS ?
This is a very good idea!Thank`s a lot
OK --so the NIB is the coke can sliver pierced with needle and folded ? I thought it was a brush bristle !--and ink ? NOT== THINNED BLACK paint ?
Excellent! I'll try safer ways of sawing the dowel and make some cool pens with my students!! Great technique.
Cool
