Hi Pen Fans!

There's a new material coming out in the Production Line Beaumont. 

This is a really nice deep red flake.  We are calling it Bordeaux Flake.

Actually, this is a material that we really wanted to use in the Beaumont when this pen was first launched, but we couldn't get it in large enough quantities back then.  I was very happy to get a large shipment of this, and so it's time to add this to the Production Line of Beaumonts!

Being a Production Line Pen, you'll buy this pen from the retailers that carry Edison for $149.  The retailers are listed below....

 US Retailers
Anderson Pens
Goldspot Luxury Gifts
Goulet Pen Company
ISellPens
Richard Binder

 International Retailers
Alexander Pen Co (Canada)
Nagasawa (Kobe, Japan)
Nagasawa  (Osaka, Japan)
Stylos.se (Sweden)
The Writing Desk (UK)

Thanks!

Hi Pen Fans!

Chicago was another great pen show!  We brought our 7 year old to his first full three days at a pen show, and he did great!  He managed to acquire more pens than I did!  We decided to stay a few extra days to show our son the city, so we just got home late last night....pretty exhausted!

I'll try my best to get through my emails today, but please allow me until Thursday or Friday if you are expecting an email from me as there are a ton to get through.  Until then, below is a slide show of the Pen Show, and a few pics from our time in the city!

Thanks!

Hi Pen Fans!

First off, I need to apologize as I will not be able to do a current inventory video like I normally do for the Pen Shows.

With the Stealth Pen, the LE Morgan, the Tweaks for Geeks Seminar, some new developments that I can't reveal yet, and our normal routine on top of all this, things have been crazy busy here lately!  My time is pretty limited today, and getting a video recorded, edited, rendered, and hosted will not fit in the schedule, sorry!

So all of this aside, we're getting packed for the Chicago Pen Show today!  We'll be leaving tomorrow, returning around the 8th.  If I'm slow with emails, you'll know why.

We'll be bringing somewhere in the range of 250 pens with us, including around 40-45 pneumatics!

We look forward to seeing you in the Windy City!

Hi Pen Fans!

If you missed the Tweaks for Geeks Nib Tuning Seminar today, fear not!  It was recorded, and I will host it below.  It can also be seen at FPGeeks.com

In addition, this presentation will also be permanently hosted on my Useful Videos Page.

The notes for the show can be found here.

If you would like to purchase the nib tuning kit that we used in this presentation, you can find this at Richard Binder's site here.

Please enjoy the presentation below.  I hope that you can use this information to breath some new life into some of your pens!  If anyone has any questions regarding, please reach out!

Big thanks to the FPGeeks!

Hi Pen Fans!

The 2013 LE Morgans are finished, packed up, and will be dropped off at the post office tomorrow!

All that participated in this project should have received tracking information by now.

Below is a photo showing the entire project (my apologies for not taking a nicer picture, but in order to get these pens out the door and still give ourselves some prep time for the Chicago Pen Show, we had to move fast!)

The complete gallery is here, or you can watch the slideshow below. 

The Fountain Pen Network is currently down, so when it's back up, I'll put more pics within the progress thread.

Thanks to all who participated!

Hi Pen Fans!

This weekend will be the long awaited Tweaks for Geeks Online Nib Tuning Seminar!

Myself and the FPGeeks will be hosting an interactive Google+ Hangout where we will demonstrate how to properly smooth and tune your fountain pen nibs.

Saturday, April 27, 2013, at 10:30am Pacific Daylight Time. 

All details are here....

...and the notes that we will be using are to be found here....
http://fpgeeks.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Nib-Smoothing-Notes.pdf

If you are not able to attend live, fear not!  The entire seminar will be recorded and hosted here at Edisonpen.com as well as FPGeeks.com for future viewings at any time.

Lastly, the intention is to keep Tweaks for Geeks as a recurring program.  The idea is to "bring your problematic pens, and we'll fix them together", so stay tuned for more episodes!

Tune In, and We'll Tune Up!
