Here is a Paasche FP flow pencil pinstriping tool on ebay where the item is currently $20 + $5 s/h/p with 18 hours to go. It has multiple tips that vary in widths from 1/16 to 3/64 in width. This is a GREAT and simple tool for pinstriping where I always found prinstriping brushes awkward to handle and get a even width of paint.
