Hello from Taranaki, New Zealand

Hi everyone!
I've been using fountain pens since the mid-1960's and seriously collecting since 2012.
My main interest is repairing and using a variety of vintage pens. Looking through my "currently inked" tin I see English Duofolds, a 51 Vac, 75 Cisele, Swan 4460 and a Conway Stewart 475. And a few others. On the workbench I have a Conway Stewart 60L.
I look forward to learning and contributing here.
John

Hi John,

How's things going up the 'Naki? (trying to get into the Kiwi way of asking - probably mangling it anyway!)

I'm down in Dunners, and it's a tad chilly let me tell you.

There's a guy up in Mangonui who does some repairs/restoration as a kind of cottage industry. Are you considering offering your services this way too? Heaven knows Godzone needs skilled repairers!

all the best

David

Heaven knows Godzone needs skilled repairers!I have no plans to take in work at the moment. I'm not yet at the point where I feel confident working on other people's valued pens.
