Does anyone know what size threads are on the full size Gentlemens FP front section? I need a tap for this pen I'm making. Thanks in advance!

I saw "what size tap" and thought "what size is the keg?"

Chuck are you talking about the nib holder or are you talking about the the nib feed? If it is the holder I can check the different taps I have tonight, but I would guess that it is an odd size. That means custom size. :mad: I don't mind one or two custom sizes but right now I am looking at about ten different custom sizes for projects I have in the works. Prices have gone up on custom taps since my last order in Jan. :mad:

Here's a quick picture of what I need a tap for. Probably custom. Thanks for any help Mike!
