Well that was cool - can't believe it's as easy as you made it look, but definitely something I've been meaning to try, and this may be the final push I needed to do it. Thanks!

 

Cheers, Al

Thanks soooo much Sumidero11. Oblique holders are expensive and more so cause you can get them in my country, Have to have it shipped from US and that adds at least $30 to $40 to the cost of the holder. Your video and guide was just perfect. Will be making one soon and will put an image of it here.

 

Thanks so much again.

Hello all,

Thanks to Sumidero, my first attempt at a DIY oblique holder

Made a small change in it and it takes all sizes of nibs including a crowquill

This was my first attempt and it seems to work just fine.

 

Will make a better one soon. :)

How cool is that. :)

 

The only thing/tool that is not common is a ROUND plier to form the curve.

Looks like I finally have a reason to buy one.

Round pliers are very common for making jewelry chains. You can probably find an inexpensive one at your local craft store.

It would be much better to buy a cylindrical piece of wood from a craft store than to ruin a perfectly good brush. Also, I feel that the effort to cut the groove and brass for the flange and potential for injury would outweigh the benefit of just buying a holder. I wouldn't feel compelled to do this unless there was absolutely no way I could get my hands on a holder.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
