Streamline Ballpoint Pen Kits

Turn a bold, retro-styled writer with the Streamline Ballpoint Pen Kit. This 7mm slimline features a dual-taper barrel design with a decorative 4-ring center band and a tapered streamline clip — giving the finished pen a polished, vintage silhouette that stands out from standard slimlines. Available in 10 finish options including Black Ti, Ti Gold, Platinum, and Chrome, there's a colorway to suit every style.

The Streamline is slim, balanced, and satisfying to use — the dual-taper profile narrows gracefully toward the center band and nib, creating a refined look that flatters any blank. A Cross-style ballpoint refill is included with every kit, so your pen is ready to write straight off the lathe. With 2 brass tubes and a clean assembly process, the Streamline is a favorite for beginners and experienced turners alike.
