Stipula Amerigo Vespucci & Davinci Nib And Feed Removal


FedericoMedina

Recommended Posts

Hi can anybody demonstrate or instruct on how to remove the Nib and feed from this type of pen?

 

most of Stipula nibs are in a nib housing so I can usually unscrew them however i think this one is friction fit however i do not know for sure. I have tried both none seems to work.

 

I want to replace the T nib currently in the pen for a G nib but cant remove it.

 

I thank you for your assistance!

Remove the converter. Press both sides of the metal plate(It has two pin sockets to connect it to the pen body) and pull the section out.

Then you can hold the section firm to pull the nib.

Perhaps the good folk in the Repair Q&A will have a solution?

The first bit is easy the last bit has been very difficult and unsuccessful.

Try to lubricate the section with some soap water. It might help.

The feed is made of plastic not ebonite. It's generally easier to pull out comparing to ebonite ones.

But if you can not pull it out even after lubrication. Don't pull it.

I found it impossible to remove the nib and feed from the metal housing in which they reside in a Da Vinci. I think your best bet is to contact Yafa or Stipula directly.

 

To remove the metal nib assembly itself is more or less as freakman mentions, and in addition you need to turn it a little. Not easy, but doable. The metal nib assembly is held in place essentially by a bayonet type fixture.

      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..

      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
