A Modified Woodex

[Aravind_A_2310]

I won't recommend you do this, but for what it's worth, I managed to shoehorn in a Kanwrite no.8 nib on my Woodex  Model 33. The pen came with a Kanwrite 5.5 nib unit threaded for JoWo, but the no.8 Kanwrite nib got in without much hassle, I don't notice any cracks in the housing, and IMO, this looks more proportioned to the grip. The pen writes flawlessly with a wet fine line, as you can see from the writings on the notebook on the backdrop. The ink for those wondering is Skylark coffee brown...👍

 

Have a nice day🙏

Nice experiment. The model 33 is great. Interesting modified grip on yours. Mine just is a straight grip unlike the hour glass of yours. 

 

It is definitely proportional. I felt a certain lack of proportion with the 5.5. it felt small for my taste

Nice looking pen. Is it ebonite or acrylic? At a first glance I thought it was Vazir Bordeaux Acrylic

I think they updated since you bought it, or the grip section is different between the 3 in 1 and eyedropper model.

It's maroon ebonite, in real life it looks darker than in pictures
