Any Source For A Platinum 3776 Feed?

Recommended Posts

Hello all,

I open this thread here because I guess it will be read by more people than in the classifieds.

I have a Platinum 3776 with a broken feed, and I need a new one.
If any of you has one spare i can buy, or knows where I can find one, I would be very grateful.

Thank you.
Vron M.

Feeds come in 15mm and 16mm diameters. Depends on age of pen. If ebonite feed most likely 16mm.

Thank you for responding.

This is the process i followed and made it work again :)

  • I ended up using the super-glue to bind it together.
  • Followed up with a straight blade to re-carve the ink channels & fins which were closed shut by super-glue.
  • Then sanded the extra superglue from the feed surface.
  • Finalized the channels again with the blade.
  • Put the nib and feed back
  • inked it up and it worked like nothing had ever happened :)

You can email bryce at luxury brands to purchase a replacement. No idea what the cost would be. He initially quoted me $50 for a new section for a 3776 but then just kinda gave it to me for free.

Selling a boatload of restored, fairly rare, vintage Japanese gold nib pens, click here to see (more added as I finish restoring them)

      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
