Hi Henk,

I just reffered to the machine setup being (in my opinion) a collet chuck and the tap and dies - still need to make a pin chuck though.

I thought of starting off with rollerballs - dont have a supplier for nibs yet. Will consult with Brigid/Bruce at MrWoodturner - I know they have the inkfeeds...

Hi Chrisjan, I'm eagerly awaiting seeing your first kitless pen - please be sure to post it. I've been thinking about moving on to making kitless pens, but don't know where to start. Some information, please - you said that once your tap & die arrives, you'll have your set-up complete. what does this set-up entail, and where can i buy what i don't already have? And items like nibs and ink-fills?

Getting my triple start tap and die in the week. It will complete the setup for kitless - cant wait for the 12th to try my first kitless! Will have to be a rollerbal seeing that I forgot to order nibs!
