I found a thread on FPN that has information on a Pilot with a made in Korea nib. Unfortunately, it looks like the host is no longer available for the pictures. Stan references it as a Pilot Custom....

Does it scratch more in one direction?

Belly button lint? Nah, everybody collects that. Sorry, I could not resist. :)

Power tools are the way forward though a bit nerve racking at first.[/QUOTE]

When it's with low cost practice nibs, not so much. I will work my way up slowly and I know the nerve racking nib will...

One of our teams is in Dallas this week and their reports are that I may not have enough time or I may be too tired to go far from the city. They are working 12 hour days.

Post away, I have to see those!

Ugh my phone keybord is acting weird.

Do you really need to quote? Its just you and the other person in the thread. Unless what your're quoting is out of sequence in relation to the thread itself, it's sort of redundant. Unless you have...

Awesome. Pics please!!![/QUOTE]

First attempt not so good but because I can't find my good scissors. I'll try again later.

Working late today but I'm going to try this when I get home. Thanks for sharing.

I have been watching and waiting for evidence to pop up before forming my own opinion. I think it is time to dig out the l337 h4x0r file. I don't ever use it except for special occasions.

1. The guy visiting us from Georgia finally admits Texas BBQ is good. :p He wants more.
2. Flight confirmation is in. Hotel room is reserved.
3. Planning what pens I'm taking with me.

I might have to stop by on my trip this summer.

I really don't know the answer to your question as to authenticity but ugly? Nah. I really like that look even if it is a frankenpen.

What sort of CP1 did you snaffle up ? Matt black or platinum ?[/QUOTE]

Matt black for me. I have a black Lamy nib that I may just grind into a stub myself. Just need the converter now.

I have seen wire bound Black N' Reds at Wally world but it has been a long time since they have had them. I got mine at the FedEx Kinko's place. I have not seen them since.

1.1 mm is my favorite. I have EF, F, B and 1.1.

Nice! Greenish blue can be good. :D
