Hello all!

I found a great store for repair tools in Canada. http://www.simcom.on.ca/woodbin/index.htm I will be trying to fix a nib on a pen I have bought on Ebay. It scratches a lot so I will be using the Micro mesh 12000 as per the article posted in the forums.

I've ordered from Wood Bin a few times in the past and have always been 100% happy. An excellent resource, even for those outside Canada.
Best regards, greg

Do this AFTER you 'tweak' the nib as best you can by aligning the nib tines. USE magnification, adding a bit of material is not something many are capable or qualified to do.

Good luck,

Good advice....and I agree with Greg above---I've always had excellent service from Martin at Woodbin
