Just made my first fountain pen. It looks great....but.....
I cannot get it to write consistently.
Granted it is a lower end kit (PSI Classic Elite), but it should still write.
It took about 5 minutes of messaging it with a damp paper towel before I saw any ink at all. After about 5 minutes of trying to write with it, I have it writing sporatically. It seems to write better on some paper than on other but so far it has not written fluidly.
Is there anything I can do? Is it the nib, is it the ink?
Any help is appreciated.
