Uzi Tactical Pen. Lost Crates Stationery Subscription Service. The Pen Project by Ian Schon. After several years of engineering school, I started to develop a passion for product design. I challenged myself to design an everyday object that I would be able to fabricate myself, embarking on a mission to design a pen to be carried with me every day. Recently, the project took a different form when I decided to do a manufacturing run of these pens. The project went from design and fabrication to a mission to keep this project local in Massachusetts, keep the footprint low and to take it to market. Over the past year I have worked hard to make this happen. After countless iterations and optimizing for efficient manufacturing, I have finished a run of 1000 pens. In order to finish the project, I need to pay for the ink cartridges and the packaging costs. 900 of these pens will ship soon after the Kickstarter campaign since all the hard fabrication and design has been completed.
Some early design process and fabrication of the prototypes can be seen on my website at ianschon.com/pen.
