  • Magnetips Fineliners by Typica

    Magnetips Fineliners by Typica

    Refillable fineliners combined with super strong Neodymium magnets. Colouring is just the beginning!

    Magnetips are not your average fine-liners. As well as being refillable, each one of our Patent-Pending pens also contains two super strong Neodymium magnets. This means that they attract one another (or any metal surface), becoming the centre-piece of your desktop. Colouring is only the beginning!

    We noticed that when unused, most of our favourite colouring pens just added to our desk clutter. When finished, they become useless, resulting in a large amount of waste added to our garbage pile.

    So…we set down at Typica and thought how we could do better. We ended up designing a beautiful and refillable set of pens that not only writes and colours beautifully, but also helps to reduce waste.

    So…we set down at Typica and thought how we could do better. We ended up designing a beautiful and refillable set of pens that not only writes and colours beautifully, but also helps to reduce waste.

    But we didn’t stop there. By adding two super strong Neodymium magnets to each of our pens, we gave the pens a life of their own, making each set into an object in its own right, both useful and playful in countless ways, even beyond colouring, sketching, and writing.

  • The Pen with No Name

    The Pen with No Name

    This pen combines 6061 aluminum & magnets with Montblanc refills to create a unique writing experience. MADE IN THE USA.

    The Pen with No Name is unlike any other pen. It is machined from 6061 aluminum, contains four neodymium (rare-earth) magnets and houses the amazing Montblanc cartridges (Fineliner & Rollerball). Combined with the optional magnetic base, this will be something you can proudly display on your desk at home or work, or better yet, one for each!

    While I designed the pen to house the Fineliner cartridge, it will also take other refills such as the widely available Pilot G2 using a small spacer. However, I would highly recommend the Fineliner by Montblanc as it will make you think twice about using any other refill.

    My focus is solely on building a pen, not a brand, so you won’t find any type of branding on this pen.

  • EO4 INDUSTRIAL PEN

    EO4 INDUSTRIAL PEN

    USA made high quality precision machined pen with a unique magnetized cap. Pen Body features 300 series surgical grade stainless steel.

    A high quality USA Made precision machined pen with a unique magnetized cap. It weighs .082lbs and is 5.037″ in length (capped). The pen body will fit standard 0.7mm gel ink refills, including the popular Pilot® G2 and others listed below. Body features a cnc machined knurled grip and a custom made screw for swapping refills. Each pen is ​​machined from 300 and 400 series surgical grade stainless steel, right here in Rhode Island.

    We were inspired by our success with the industrial themed “wave” cribbage board which we designed based on an idea and the desire to keep manufacturing local. This one idea has now spiraled to others.

    “​​Makers” at heart we decided to try our hand at pen making. We feel the end result is truly unique and expect that you will too.

    Each pen is precisely machined using a cnc swiss screw machine, laser weld, and passivated . .And the name? Well a super cool pen deserves a very cool name. E04 derives from the 304 Stainless Steel Metal used in the main body of the pen.

  • Ti2 TechLiner Pen

    Ti2 TechLiner Pen

    A titanium pen body for the Uni-Ball Signo 207 refill with neodymium magnets.

    In art school we were required to use technical pens for our design classes.  These “needle point” pens offered open sight lines for great precision and use with rulers and french curves.   As a sequel pen project we decided to design a titanium heirloom quality “tech” pen for everyday use.

    Key Features:

    Magnetically retained cap — The TechLiner shares the same philosophy as the original Ti2 Pen project…  Cap retention without threads.  Using 3 rare earth magnets, the cap is pulled on tip or tail with approximately 2 lbs of force.  We’ve accomplished this with a unique custom ring magnet that fits around the tip of the Signo 207 refill series.

    Machined grip — When we designed the Techliner we wanted a tactile grip surface comfortable for extended writing sessions.  The machined “grid” pattern offers a non-slip, secure grip

    DFM — Designed For Manufacturing.  The TechLiner has only 3 unique parts.  Lower unique part count means less setup, tooling cost and machine time in turn getting your rewards out quicker!

  • TiPeN Precision Machined

    TiPeN Precision Machined

    TiPeN™ – Doing Simple — Extravagantly | Write in Style | Will Last a Lifetime | Pen Refill Not Included | Stick it with Magnets

    TiPeN™ is small, comfortable, well-balanced, lightweight, and stronger than other Non-Titanium pens.

    My Story

    I’m not a fan of large pens and I love Titanium.  So where can I find a small Titanium Pen?  I couldn’t find a small pen that had any decent writing refill.  There are other Titanium pens on the market but are just too large for me, or EXPENSIVE!  So I set out to make a pen that I like.

    After my previous Kickstarter projects I was able to buy a small CNC Lathe for my garage, I bought it just for this project.  My Goal is to make the “Perfect” Titanium Pen, but also to make the pen affordable for Kickstarter Backers.  I want to get this pen in your hands, so you can see and feel the beauty of it for yourself. 🙂

    Yes, the TiPeN™ really is 100% made in my garage, in a small town in Iowa.
