Hello world,
First start of this design was a simple fact: everybody have a bic ballpen at home, this model where ball point and cartridge come out easely (2nd picture)...
And it finish his life most of the time with broken body and its rock solid point/ cartridge fully functionnal with more than half level of ink left.
So here is the (earth people) revolution! And the action where 3d printing for everyone take its sense--> print your favorite design of a body like this one, and simply fit the cartridge inside! You can get an original new pen without buying a new one, but recycling old one.pretty cool, isnt it?
It has an original shape with a side clip and... cerise sur le gateau(i am french) a cool makerbot logo on top!

NEW!!!! just added a rendered animation to see it in (near)real!
