Celtic ballpoint pen kit – intricate Celtic knot design

The Celtic ballpoint pen kit from Penn State Industries features intricate Celtic knot scrollwork inspired by traditional Celtic designs. Decorative metalwork on the tip, clip and end cap gives this pen its distinctive appearance, while an emerald-coloured cabochon on the end adds a finishing touch.

This single-barrel pen kit is an attractive choice for woodturners who enjoy making pens with decorative details. Its Celtic-inspired design pairs well with a variety of wood and acrylic pen blanks, allowing you to create a finished pen with plenty of character.

What tooling do I need to make this pen?

To make this kit, you will need (all sold separately):

• 3/8" drill bit
• Bushing set PKGAFBU
• 3/8" pen mill shaft
• Pen mandrel A/7 mm

This is a woodturning project that requires turning, finishing and assembly using appropriate woodworking equipment. You will receive the pen kit components, not a finished pen.

What size pen blank do I need?

The Celtic pen kit uses a single pen blank. A standard pen blank measuring 3/4" square × 5" long (19 × 19 × 127 mm) provides material for drilling, turning and trimming to the required length. The pen blank is sold separately. Shown with an Afzelia Lay pen blank (sorry, not currently available).

What refill does this kit take?

This kit uses a standard “Parker”-style ballpoint refill, which is widely available and easy to replace. Upgrade with a Schmidt P900 ink refill, or premium Parker-style ink refills from Beaufort Ink. For a refill that glides across the page like a rollerball, try the Schmidt Easy Flow 9000. The kit comes with one standard black-ink refill; all others are sold separately.

Can this kit be turned into a pencil?

Yes! Turn this kit into a pencil with the Parker-style Forever pencil refill (sold separately). Just remove the pen refill, slip the spring onto the pencil refill, and insert the pencil refill into the pen kit.

Can I combine this kit with other pen kits for volume discounts?
