Titanium P200 body

General Mechanical Pencil Discussion Custom and Mods

I’ve made a simple titanium body for the P200 series pencils.
The specs are:

  • Grip and body diameter: 8mm
  • Weight: 15g
  • Length: same as P200 series

I’ve experimented with anodizing and also making a custom cap that is pressed fit with two o-rings in the tip.
I’ve yet to anodize the cap.
I’ve also posted on reddit. Here i will update with the final cap

Second version i did today, machined after anodizing so there are some bare titanium highlights.

Made another one but with no anodization and the adapter in brass.
In the photo there is also my custom titanium body for the bic cristal.
I have a thing for cheap and reliable stationary: P205 and BIC Cristal.

Beautiful work! The anodization in your initial post is very nice. Is titanium andizing difficult? I have never tried it but I have thought about it for one of my titanium pens.

Also, what is the pen on the right in your most recent picture? It looks like a Bic Crystal with a special body.
