As one of the few American manufacturers specializing in products for seniors, Odyssey Mfg. presents the new exclusive Roto-Vue™ Carousel Fountain Pen Display Case. This product will be of special interest to seniors who grew up when fountain pens were still the 'only game in town' and have seriously collected them over the years. Now, at last, you can store,
see and enjoy all your fine writing instruments in one place
at one time! While specifically designed for up to 60 of your
fine fountain pens, it works equally as well for your ballpoints,
rollerballs and mechanical pencils. Has 54 pockets for pen
barrels up to 9/16" in diameter and 6 pockets for pen
barrels up to 5/8" in diameter-that is, your 'widebodies'.
To help protect your prized possessions from 'walking away',
our carousel comes with two key operated camlocks with one
common key for both locks. Our carousel is not a mass-produced
injection-molded item, but individually hand-crafted by highly-skilled
artisans in the U.S.A. (these are the same folks who make
precision models for the aerospace industry).
As you can see, its design is inspired
by the world's finest 12-sided celluloid pens. In particular,
the stationary housing, which consists of a circular base,
a 12-sided vertical wall and a removably lockable circular
lid, is constructed of optical-quality, heavy-duty 3/16"clear
acrylic sheet stock. The pens themselves are vertically seated
in individual holes of a rotatable 'lazy susan' platform,
which consists of 3 circular 'shelves' (made of a softer resin
so as not to scratch your pens) attached to a vertical acrylic
spindle that extends through the housing lid on the upper
end and balances on a fixed pointed dowel pin emanating from
the housing base on the other end. The spindle cleverly breaks
apart just below the lid so that the lid can be removed without
removing the rotatable platform at the same time. Having an
outside diameter of 10.9" and height of 8.2", our
carousel can be safely stored in a standard lockable filing
cabinet when you are away from home.
To rotate the platform carrying the pens,
simply rotate the knob at the top of the spindle. However,
the rotatable platform can easily be lifted out for dusting
or cleaning when necessary. So if you think your pen collection
is now worthy of being displayed in a museum-quality display
case that probably costs no more than one of your own fine
pens, then our carousel may be just what you're looking for.
*Compared to horizontal pen cases.
(To avoid boredom, you can keep 30 different pens charged
with ink in 7 different colors. This means you not only can
use a different pen everyday of the month, but also a different
pen with a different color ink everyday of the week!)
