Can you connect with the pen?

Well, I think you can. You see, with some pens, especially the acrylic ones, they are smooth, highly polished and completely sealed. You can also do this with wood. You can spray them with the plastic coating substances, or you can seal them with CA glue and then Polish them to a really high finish.

However, I have come to realise if you apply a light coating of wax to a highly sanded and polished but unsealed pen, over time, the pen absorbs the natural oils from your skin, and then your pen contains natural oils. Surely, now you're connected to the pen, yeah?
