Fountain Pen Rig

So last night I explored the whole question with rigging a Cheapy fountian pen with a better nib, so that I can use it for various application and get a better line. After hearing straight from one of the Source (Millionaire) I then proceeded to vivisect a pen I had.

Well it was a mess, but mission NOT accomplished. Problem was that the curve of the barrel versus the curve of the nibs I had didn’t correspond, so I then went about taking my plier and trying to MAKE them correspond, but that just led to nibs with warped points. SO now I need to find another fountain pen with a wider build and some nibs, I guess something like a hunt 102  for a point but wide bodied or better.

More to come.
