dip pen nibs

[Bill Collier]

I have had a request to make a customer a quill pen. Can anyone tell me where I can buy a fountain pen style (dip) nib for this. I have not made a pen like this before and any help anyone can offer in making this would be greatly appreciated.

Michael's or Aaron Brothers Art Mart, I bet even Office Max might have one. I saw a cheap calligraphy set Ace hardware the other day.

Quill Pen?? On my last trip to Colonial Williamsburg I saw a guy take out a pocket knife and make one from the Quill []
