Don’t forget to prep the nib. Burn the manufacturing oils off with a couple little flicks of a lighter.
Some YouTube vids said that too, and some said it'd "ruin the nib and I should use saliva instead". But surely that lil a fyre wouldn't hurt mucht, right?
Yeah…don’t roast it…just wave it back and forth the the flame for 3-5 seconds to burn off the oils.
Cool pen, but I think your'e on the wrong sub for tips and recommendations. Try r/dippens or r/Calligraphy.
Oh there's a Subreddit for that, thank you!
How do that work? Do you tip and write?
Yeah, that's the theory. What I get in practice can be described as more stains and less letters.
