    Inspection Nib

    arran posted a topic in Repair Q&A

    Hi all I was just wondering how we can evaluate a nib on a few parameters: I just got a new pen , which is a very smooth writer but hard startup pen Looking at the nib against light , i cannot see a fussure or slit.Does this say someting ? Another issue that the nib cracks when putting the nib on paper and turning it slightly to the left and right. Could applying a slit paper between the tines a solution for the hard starter?

    1.9 Lamy Safari Nib Ajustment

    dgreenwood116 posted a topic in Repair Q&A

    I'm fairly new to the forums, though i have poked around and have found quite a bit of information on here!. Though i need some help now! I have a Lamy Safari with a 1.9mm nib and i went about trying to make the nib more wet, i watched videos and consulted info on here to do so. I was coming near the end and thought i had did a quite good job, though after the pen set for a little bit, the ink will retract back further into the tines of the nib so much so that it will not start. The only way i can get the pen started from there is to twist the converter or shake the ink down, though once it gets to writing its perfect! I wouldn't suppose somebody would know if i have the nib spread out to far or what is happening? It would be much appreciated! Thanks!
