What is the difference between the fine tip glue pen and the ball point pen? Don't both pen tips make fine lines of glue?

The fine tip has a more bigger tip, so it is better for making patterns o doing small detail on projects, while the ball point is even more finer much like a normal pen, so it's more suitable when you want to write a sparkly letter or do a lot of fine detail.

Hi Rita! This is a heat stick, no glue comes out at all. The glue is actually on the backside of the crystals that are made to be used with this tool - when you apply the hot tip to the crystal it melts the glue.

Because the stylus tip is broad it's not good for precision drawing/writing. When I want to write/draw with precision I use a Musemee Notier which has a clear disc tip so you can see the point of drawing. But the Notier doesn't have a ballpoint pen in it which is why I own both. I mostly use this stylus/pen for my iPhone and the Notier for my iPad.

The tip on this is very fine; however I would say it is probably slightly thicker than a ball point pen. You could probably achieve that thickness if you use the pen very lightly with small strokes.

I believe the tip is a tad bit smaller than the Papermate Ultra Fine Flair. I have used both and really like them both equally!

Yes they have a very ultra fine point. I use them to do detail work on stamped handmade cards. They are like using a fine point pen.

The opposite end of the "ink pen" has a foam tip. The foam tip is for use on the tablet. The tip is foam so varying pressures will make a line thin or fat depending on the pressure applied.

it comes with two different type of nibs with spares in the package. One tip is hard plastic composite and feel like ball pen and smooth on surface other is softer composite and rubber like for felt tip marker feel likely, you can swap it anytime easily.

I have only used ball point pens and the ink was not smeared. The only issue that on some colored tabs ball point pens are not as dark as gel pens so can be hard to read the writing at a glance

i found that I needed to buy an interchangeable pen. comes with some wire to make your own tips. I found one for about $25 online at Packard Woodworks

No, pull the cap off one end and there is a regular ball point pen. The other end is use for the touch screen, instead of using your finger.

Hi Richard, the tip size is the average size of a pen. You can have thin lines by lightly pressing down, and thick lines by pressing the pen down harder.

This pen can use either the ballpoint pen refill (Parker), or the gel refills. I personally prefer the gel refills. Don't get the off brands-- esp Monte Verde. They're cheap, and the gel pens are usually too dried out to use. Buy the real deal. Hope that helps.

Cross mini ballpoint pen refills work. Just like Mostlee responded, you just have to take off the black end of the empty one and place it on the new refill.

I use Monteverde mini ballpoint refills (Medium Point) for multi function pens. I did not like the Fisher refills because they tended to skip a lot. These fit pretty loose in my Space Pen so I pressed the open end of the refill to make it a little out of round. This made it fit tight. I love this pen now that I use these refills. I hope this helps.

The point on this pen is not particularly fine, and is comparable to most ballpoints. It takes the PR-series cartridges, which are available in finer points: http://www.spacepen.com/cartridge.aspxI can't tell you how long they will last, as I've never had one run out before losing it. They will last for at least four months of heavy, daily use, as that's the longest I had one.

Hi Derya, The Fine Point pen barrel is dark blue, and the Regular, or Medium Point barrel is Black. Rick
