Hi all!

 

I have a very new Opus 88 Fantasia, which isn't yet writing so well.

 

The underside of the nib looks a bit strange - does something look off?

 

Thanks!

No.  The nib has just shifted a bit over the feed.  You can easily nudge it back so that the feed is centered under the slit.

Just to add a little clarity, just in case. Centre the feed channel under the nib breather hole.

Add lightness and simplicate.
