Twsbi Mini O-Rings

[Jgalfano]

 

Hello all,

 

I have a TWSBI Mini with a Medium nib and, some time ago, lost the o-ring on the piston knob that prevents over-tightening of the cap upon posting. Does anybody know where I can buy a replacement o-ring, or am I just SOL?

 

On the attached image, I marked where the o-ring is normally located in red.

Two choices: contact TWISBI I'm sure you're not the first

Go down to a good hardware store with your pen and go through their supply of 'O" rings

If you still have the original box, mine came with a couple o-rings (iirc) stashed underneath the white platform the pen was resting on... Maybe peek in there and see?

I ran into a similar issue with the O-Ring on my Vac 700 ... while it came with spares, two of them broke ... leaving me with just one. I couldn't find one small enough at the hardware store. However, looking at my daugther's ECO, it is significantly larger than the one on my Vac 700 and can probably be found at the HW store.

 

If not, you can send TWSBI an email (twsbiinc@gmail.com)

 

They sent me 3 new ones for the cost of shipping --$3.
