Sheaffer Snorkel Saratoga - Restored:

Pen fully mechanically restored, so I went in cleaned it up and replaced the sack with a longer lasting silicone one rather then a rubber one, replaced the o-rings shellacked everything and re greased the mechanical components. Did not do anything to the body so you can still see scratches on the cap and body and some dents on the rear knob. Also did a little nib work on it nothing too crazy but the tines were a little far apart and misaligned so the pen was baby bottoming a little bit got it perfect. There was a little crack in the rear knob that I tried to repair w/ some bakelite compatible epoxy resin but it\'s still a little visible. I finished testing it with ink and cleaned out the ink as best I could so it doesn\'t make a mess in transit or react with whatever ink you want to put in it to clot it and am now looking to sell. My cameras not amazing so I didn\'t get a great picture of the engraving but it is a fort Madison Iowa one. Willing to consider offers below asking so long as it\'s not a complete low ball.
