Nib Holders NEW group Buy

[joeatact]

Well I am ready to order more NIBS is there anyone else interested in another group buy again. Let me know what the interest is and I will see what prices can be arranged.

 

[Tea Clipper]

If you're talking about these from Stiles and Bates, then I'd be in for 50.

[mrcook4570]

at least 50 also

 

[Jim15]

I'd be interested also.

 

[Rojo22]

I have never done a caligraphy pen before, and I did not see the tips located on the web site. Where do you go for tips????? I might be in for 50 if I knew more about the tips......any help would be appreciated....

 

[joeatact]

The nibs are from bates in the uk. I will proceed on finding out costs and set up a page on my website.

 

[joeatact]

I have a article on my site http://www.trade80.com/JCP/projects/dip_pens/making_di_pens.pdf
that I wrote on how I do it.

 

[les-smith]

I'd be in for some, probably around 50.

 

[clewless]

I'm interested too.

 

[keithz]

I would be interested in 25-30 of these.

Thanks for the information! Neat looking stuff. I would like to know if that nib holder is universal to most types of tips, or is there a special brand that goes with that type of nib holder for sale? I dont know much about the different tips.....

thanks

Speedball nibs fit the nib holder and can be found at many different places including Michael's, etc.

 

[joeatact]

I have used this nib holder with various types of nibs they all so far seem the same

 

[DCBluesman]

Robert - All you need to know is that the holder and nib shaft are the same...in this case 1/4". There ARE other sizes, but this is the most common.

 

[Rojo22]

Thanks everyone for schooling me on the nib/tip thing, much appreciated...love learning new stuff....I will try and get a few of these made to grow my "line" of pens I sell....

 

[Jim15]

Joe, just ordered using Paypal.

Thank you,

 

[olsenla]

Joe,

I also just placed an order using Paypal.

Thanks,
Larry

Something seems to be wrong with your site for ordering. I clicked "Add to Cart" and all I got was a new page showing the gif of the button. I want to order 25 of the nib holders, shipped 1st class.

Keith - I had the same problem so I had to try several different browsers.... I normally use Firefox, tried Mozilla, and I think ended up using Safari.

Still time to get in on the nib buy see first message

 

[bob393]

I wish I saw this buy! I just ordered 100 from S&B. They are not even here yet!

 

[keithz]

Thanks Joe, PayPal has been sent. I look forward to receiving these nib holders. I've had a few ask about making calligraphy pens.
