I modified a nib, too!

I want to let you know that I successfully modified a nib. My Lamy 1.5 italic nib (or is it a stub?) was too wide for me and I hadn't any use for it. Inspired by artaddict's recent success I decided to make the nib a bit smaller by using a polishing file for nails and a sheet of Micro-Mesh 12000. Some time later the nib had become approximately a 0.8 italic - and it is as smooth as before. I'm very proud. :D

See the picture for a before and after comparison.

 

Regards

Hans-Peter
