I think it is about time to also say hello, so HELLO.
I have been following the discussions a while and was hesitant to make an introduction because I started off by ordering the well known "pen turners bible" and thereafter started ordering pen kits. Unfortunately we had a strike in our postal service with the final result that my book arrived about six weeks after my kits. So I started teaching myself and I must say I have gained a lot of (costly) experience.
In any case I am carrying on and when I think I have something worthwile I shall post pictures.:biggrin:
I do however have a problem and iff nessesary will post it on FAQ so I am mentioning here:The pen kits available here have a marking on the fountain pen nibs : "Ridium Point Germany" What happens is that while writing just all of a sudden out of the blue several large drops of ink will just drop out! Is this a commen ocurrence ? Am I doing something wrong when putting the pen together? It is a lovely smooth nib to write with.
I would appreciate your comments
Regards
