I know this is not spot on topic, but there are many FP collectors who are interested in other writing instruments such as the ballpoint. If you're wondering how the Parker "style" ink cartridge is made, view this video on the process of making a Schneider Parker "style" ballpoint cartridge. The majority of the video is dedicated to this.

This video  (different from the first posted video) is the best representation I've seen that explains how the Parker ballpoint refill cartridge works.

Several pen companies make their BP pens to take Parker or Cross.  I once even got a refill with an adapter to fit over the end so it you could use their refill in Parkers.
