Wouldn't an answer to that question contravene the current FPN site rules/agreement?

 

Hopefully he'll list some here in classifieds when he has enough posts

Sorry I didn't read the full list of rules and regulations, if it is against the rules I apologize for that.

the rules

I think that's what I read in them today, however feel free to check I'm not sure about The Mall and what type of posts can go in there. Different subset of rules. Which I didn't read properly.

 

There's probably enough unique key words ^^^ up there ^^^ in earlier posts of this thread to help us locate the latest when they appear so as to isolate them from the unmodded versions.

This would be great!

I received mine in the last week. Here's the review:

Be prepared: My review is looooong, detailed, and has large (hopefully useful) pictures including close-ups.

I searched eBay for jfdiberica - no results. Sad face.

I think the eBay name is jfdiberian, not jfdiberica. I recently ordered one of his creations.

I'm going to finish making another one of these tomorrow in Pima tortoise if anyone's interested

 

My name is Joseph DaLuz. I just wrote a lengthy explanation about what I've been doing with the Noodler's Ahab, but it was lost in cyberspace... so here's some copy from my ebay listing.

 

Custom Noodler's Ahab: nib reground to XF, with another Nib mod to increase flex to BBB. Feed also reset. After the flex mod, I used a Zeiss microscope to adjust the tines and do the regrind. As fine as it is, it's still smooth. To increase the ink flow during times of high demand, I made a titanium overfeed. there is a slight notch in the section for this. It was difficult to get the two axis curvature right. It's everyday use and for pointed pen calligraphy

 

Amazing flex actually, and will not railroad if you write at a moderate speed. I find that ink flow tolerances are better than many of my precious vintage pens.

 

 

 

i saw one of your pens sell recently for just shy of $160, is that reflective of the normal prices they go for?

One in April also sold at about that same price.

Thank you. I copy-and-pasted the name from above, and now I've copied jfdiberian and am not able to connect to eBay (I have a wonky Internet connection, sigh). But I will try it as soon as I'm able to get to eBay. Thanks again!

That's close to what I paid for mine. Compare it with a vintage...say, Waterman...with an EF superflex nib from a good restorer, and it's suddenly a bargain.
