I picked up a vintage Waterman's Nurse's pen for my wife and I'd like to put a silicone bladder in it to prevent further discoloration. Does anybody know of a source in the US that carries them? I saw that woodbin has them, but I thought I'd try to find somewhere in the US to keep shipping down for such a small order.

Everybody gets their silicone sacs from Martin at Woodbin.

I regularly Buy from Martin. Shipping is usually around $4 and takes about a week to get here in a padded envelope. Not bad actually.

+3, he's a very good seller & the shipping he charge's is probably less than his cost

Thanks for the recommendations. I had purchased tools from woodbin for repairing Parker vacumatics in the past and I seem to recall the shipping being more than reasonable. Not sure why I hesitated ...

The Pen Sac Co. only produces latex sacs. http://www.pensacs.com/

No silicone (which are stiffer)
