Can one or two of you who have digital calipers and either the large or small steel nib please give me a measurement on the thickness of the metal. Do not measure at the tip. I need the measurements for the Jrs, or Baron and for The Churchill and Gent/Stateman, Thanks in advance.
Nib metric needed

Lou: I have a Jr. Statesman Ver. I with a med nib. I get different measurements depending on what part of the nib I try to measure. Obviously, measuring the nib is tricky since most all of the surfaces are curved. Measurements range from 0.010" to 0.015". The measurement I trust most was taken from the end of the nib opposite to the tip and along the axis of the nib. That measurement was 0.0105".
Thanks, Randy.

Lou,
I measured my Sedona and also measured .0105 right behind the wing. This was with the nib installed so I would not trust it completely but since it is in line with Randy's measurement (even though from different suppliers) I felt it was close enough to post.
