Indigo Ballpoint Pen Kits
Turn a pen that wears its quality quietly with the Indigo Ballpoint Pen Kit by Dayacom. A refined mid-sized twist pen built around a gracefully fluted cap and finial and a smooth roller clip, the Indigo has the slim, clean silhouette of a pen that belongs on a professional's desk. At 5¼" finished, it's the ideal size for an all-day carry pen — substantial enough to write with comfortably, slim enough to pocket without a second thought.
What truly sets the Indigo apart is its understated elegance. Where themed pen kits tell a story through engraving, the Indigo lets the architecture of the hardware do the work — the fluted texture catches the light, the roller clip glides smoothly, and the overall profile exudes the kind of quiet confidence that makes a pen feel like a precision instrument rather than a craft project. Pair it with a richly figured blank and the result is something genuinely special.
Features
Fluted cap and finial — graceful ribbed texture that catches the light and elevates the pen's profile above a standard slimline
Roller clip — smooth, refined clip with a classic look that complements any blank
Twist mechanism — reliable, satisfying ballpoint action for everyday use
Single-tube, straight-body design — one of the easiest kits to turn and assemble, perfect for beginners and production turners alike
Parker-type refill compatible — works with both standard ballpoint and gel Parker-style refills for versatile writing performance
All-day carry size — 5¼" finished length is the sweet spot for pocket comfort and writing balance
Clean, timeless aesthetic — slim and elegant hardware that lets a beautiful blank take center stage
Tooling Requirements
Drill Bit: 3/8"
Bushings: No dedicated bushings are currently available for this kit — use calipers to size your barrel to the pen components directly.

Gel refill compatibility gives the finished pen extra everyday appeal — buyers who prefer gel ink don't have to compromise
The slim 5¼" profile and roller clip make it a natural fit for a shirt pocket — a practical everyday carry that happens to be handcrafted
