Trying to get an old 759 to write consistently. Resacced and flossed the nib but still won't lay down ink. Methinks the feed needs adjusting. If that doesn't work, I'll most likely send it out for repair.

Bracket brown in IM nib by John Sorowka!

One of my best pens.

Thanks CS for great service

So, it has arrived... congrats.

 

Can you give a writing sample with a normal CS and the JS-CS nib?

Filled my CS 100 Coral Green with a new ink (just came in the mail yesterday), Diamine Imperial Purple. Also filled my Belliver Borealis with the other new ink that came, Diamine Sapphire Blue.

Still have the Heather Churchill IB in rotation, but undecided which ink to use after tiring of the Black Current.

m'borough in IM today

'The Yo-Yo maneuver is very difficult to explain. It was first perfected by the well-known Chinese fighter pilot Yo-Yo Noritake. He also found it difficult to explain, being quite devoid of English.

So we left it at that. He showed us the maneuver after a sort. B*****d stole my kill.'

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

      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

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
