    • @TactileTurn
      @TactileTurn 12 днів тому

      Nah, we decided that a Pilot G2 size would be too long since this mechanism needs to be a little longer. These come with Schmidt Easy Flows, but you can chop half an inch off of the G2 and it'll fit well. The mechanism is three pieces - two of those are titanium and the third is the bronze switch in the middle. In the video we talk about trying a few materials and bronze felt the smoothest, so that's what we went with.

      These first ones are going to be $149. Zirc in my experience does not have the same properties for lubricity that bronze does and would lead to a much less smooth feel. I do not have any plans to make the mechanism from Zirc.

    I wasn't aware ya'll did special edition bolt action moku-ti and mokume gane pens/pencils. I will definitely be keeping my eye out for both. lol. I have a zirconium pen/pencil set with moku-ti clip/bolt and absolutely love them both. I also have a pencil in bronze with moku-ti clip/bolt and a the full size blot action pen in bronze with moku-ti bolt. I'm working on getting the slim bolt action pen in bronze so I can have the moku-ti clip/bolt so it matches the bronze pencil. I won't buy another writing instrument since learning of Tactile Turn. imo nothing beats the quality that Tactile Turn puts out. the weight of the bronze, imo is perfect, and I love the milling pattern. the pattern is subtle but yet gives you great grip while writing. Absolutely perfect pens/pencils imo.

    Awful customer service and ordering system. Regardless of theirs good pens quality, but the ordering system is ripping you off, in the last 1 month it happened twice that I ordered the pens, but never shipped, the money deducted, when I try to send emails asking about the delay after 1 week, they just gives unreasonable excuses which I don’t need to know about like theirs staff holidays and loves for theirs families or Andrew’s baby girl so that I have to wait, then they just cancel the order and refund the money, after telling the truth that the pen was by mistake in stock and now it is not! Every time they do this trick, I lose $30 as an overseas customer from the exchange rate through my credit card. There is already people stuck with theirs malfunctioning mechanism of recently released Slim Side Click pen, good luck to get that fix with Tactile Turn and theirs beloved families. good luck also with theirs Lifetime warranty they are using it as a marketing niche. Amateur people or logistic company who is administrating theirs website and shipping process. If you still like theirs product I advise to buy from a reseller, at least you deal with a trustful people. But for me never Tactile Turn again

      You'd think something like a clip of "writing with the pen" would be an obvious inclusion in an ad for a 150 dollar pen. I get it, there's 3 different sizes with different ink carts so this may be hard to advertise properly but the writing isn't what I want to see anyway. I can google any pen with those refills for that. I want to see what this 150 dollar pen looks like.

    Will, please answer this question. Your answer will be so valuable for me: I am starting a new company that is going to produce a mechanical machine which I have designed. Those components of it which need to be produced with lathe have dimensions similar to a normal pen; From 10mm/12mm stainless still bar they should be made. They have lengths in the range of 4cm to 9cm. Also the same cuts that I see you have created on these pens (I mean that cut which is like a J on these pens of your company) should be made on some of my components as well. So, I know that I need a lathe with at least 3 axis; X, Z, C. It should also support live tools. But my question is that whether I need to buy a Swiss type CNC lathe, or a normal CNC lathe can also do the job for me. The advantage of a normal lathe is that it is more versatile and I can use it to make some other products in the future as well (as the other products that I think of creating in the future need to be made up of about 5cm bars, which is quite large for a Swiss lathe). But on the other hand Swiss lathe is more accurate, as we know. I really don't want super accurate results. I would say, any lathe which is good enough for producing these clean pens that you create, can do my job as well. So, could you please let me know which way you think I should go? I already thank you a lot for this informative video.

    Expensive, but Corinthian bronze/shakadu is the urushi equivalent of metal in terms of surface finish. Plato is quoted saying (Criti. 114E) that this was "the most precious of the metals then [in the mythical past] known except gold”. Alfred Gilbert, who is best known for Cupid in London Trocadero, did a lot of experimentation with Corinthian type alloys to achieve unique colour and lustre (aubergines were particularly favoured, if i remember). This alloy also allowed leaching the surface of its bronze constituencies to affect a pure gold surface. The Japanese Shakadu used Corinthian type inlays which when given patina revealed the inlay as dark coloured.
