Refurbed Esterbrook
I picked up a "J" series Esterbrook at a local flee market for $10. The sac was dried up and the nib (a fine manifold) had the ball missing on one side. I replaced the sac and ground the nib to an italic. The pen turned out to be a nice writer.

Excellent!!! Good job Jerry.
I have yet to try my hand at grinding nibs, but you inspire me.  By the way... Nice handwriting!
