Thank you, Pablo and Bill! :cheers:

Now we need an MT.o Space Pen to go with the ball caps. :)

That is a shame, Bill, about the shuttle falling off.  :(

Still a fine pen. And if I can find a way to fix the shuttle back I will

Went to the pen shop today.
The Space Pen stock was much reduced from what I remember it being.  ???
Refills available in black and blue! Goodness me, the variety!   :ahhh

At least the had the most important one I craved: Fine tip, Blue. :tu:
I like blue better than black, for some reason....

Military plain matte black Cap-o-matic.


With a pink plastic gemstone.


The selection was quite limited, OK?!

Actually I kind of like the pink plastic gemstone. It’s only glued on anyway.

I personally wouldn't want the gemstone regardless of color, but the pen looks nice!

I'm interested to hear your thoughts on the cap o matic.  I believe they make a raw brass version as well.

Glue?  :think:

I tried that. The Shuttle sits on two pressed metal lugs (so it does move a little anyway) and should rest quite close to the pen tip.

Short answer seems to be the Titanium grey space pen was too slippery for the super glue to adhere to so... no

I'm not struggling with your choice of pen. That's fine. I'm really struggling with a pink plastic gemstone... which presumably neither a gem nor a stone  :think:

But hey it's the Fisher refill that wins !

Well, to be technical, only iron oxides can be called rust, but I was under the impression that all non-precious metals including brass oxidise in wet environments?

I think you're probably right. Oxidise in any sort of atmosphere I suspect (certainly titanium does for a protective oxidised layer pretty quickly I recall). The good news is that your plastic Rose Crystal will stay lovely for eternity.
