    Very nice project! I MUST make one for my wife to take to work on those rare occasions when she has to actually go to the office. Everyone will be jealous! I am retired but she is still working for now. I was going to make a bolt action type or screw cap type pen or MAYBE a push button type, but now I have ordered a couple of shake mechanisms and I am waiting on them to ship here from Germany. So I am committed.
    If you ever do a followup video it would be nice to have more dimensions, drill depths, etc and the length of your ball point cartridge. You did a lot of work developing your design and some of your viewers would probably like to skip all of the trial and error parts, and start with actual dimensions that you have proven will work.
    Thanks for making this video. I enjoyed watching it and I will enjoy trying to duplicate your design and match your excellent build quality. Thumb up from me!

    Very nice. I have never seen anyone make a clip like this. I have never thought of making a pen because I did not see how I could make a good clip. Can you provide a bit morning formation on the steel you used? I see you annealed it before bending, have you considered hardening it after you were finished forming it? Thank you for a great video. Informative, well edited, a joy to watch.

    • @WeCanDoThatBetter
      @WeCanDoThatBetter  2 года назад +1

      Thanks for your comment and feedback! I really do appreciate that. The steel I used for the clip was from a roll of 0,5mm feeler gage. Unfortunately there is no indication which sort of steel this is exactly. It only says "springsteel". The roll is 5m 0,5m thick 12,xxmm wide feeler gage springsteel. I thought about hardening the clip after bending but as the clip felt springy enough and I was lazy, I didn't harden it again. But I will try with an other clip to harden it again after bending. I assume that would be better.
