Have you called Pilot to ask if they already make such a thing?
Often I find that they do, only my supplier(s) only carry the more
"popular" styles, and fine point is popular these days (wonder if that
correlates with width of blue jean bottoms? ;-) )... even if Pilot does
not, they may well consider it if folks ask. It's easier than you think
to get a hold of these folks and they are usually pleased to hear from a
customer wanting MORE of their stuff.
