... How have you resolved the leaking issue?

At least one person has...unscrew the metal fitting on the nib end of the section, grease threads and screw back on.

Thank you for the recommendation for Bobby. I got some lovely .7 stubs in a size 5. I put one in my Baoer 79 and inked it with Diamine Evergreen-the green has never looked so bright. Best of all, the stub is small enough for my 6mm guidelines.

Long time not posting in this thread..

Currently using the beautiful PenBBS 480 in Sunset finish, nib swap with FP Nibs 0.38 CI grind.

I like it - simple 'tube' style reminiscent of Rotrings of yore. Just bought one like this and one in black (no pale blues available unfortunately, else I would have taken one of those too). Looking forward to popping in a Lamy 1.1 in one of them.

 

Try Googling "Let's See Action" by The Who. I think it fits.

If I remember correctly both Helen and Bobje have mentioned Moonman and other Chinese pens with italic and/ or stub nibs. My question: what are these nibs and where could I get some of my own? 😁

 

I have an unbranded wooden pen (not the bamboo pen) with a 1.1 stub as well as the Yiren in 1.1 and 0.7. The broader stubs have been plain crappiness, even after much tuning, so I'm still looking one or two nice ones.
