Hullo.
I'm hoping that someone here is familiar with the curious feed arrangement on this ancient pen. It's an over/under feed. When I first got the pen I quickly filled it to try and it worked, quite well. Obviously it was dirty, so I dismantled it and cleaned everything thoroughly. This was a mistake though it was pretty dirty. The pen is stored upright; now, on preparing to write, two or three large blobs of ink hit the paper, after which it works perfectly - it's a lovely writer, super flexible smooth nib.
I have a nasty feeling that the problem relates to that curious bit of twisted wire which is jammed into the feed. When I took it apart it fell out. I have refitted it of course, but I daresay incorrectly.
Does anyone have any pointers about assembly of this feed?
Thanks in advance,
Cob
