was the video a joke, or is this how you work on the nib? I just thought you really banged the thing really hard with the hammer....how did the imprint remain?

[Petergly]

Woo hoo! I've got all those tools... this should be easy... :-)

One thing he did get wrong though - VB and Fourex are not Aussie beers. Well, they are, but they certainly don't taste like beer... ;-)

[KrazyIvan]

Haha! Good one!

"tinnies"? Have I been saying this wrong (to myself of course, no one I know in real life talks to me about fountain pens)? I thought it was 'tines' to rhyme with 'mines'.

You need the right tools ! The imprint was masked with tape....

No no " tinnies " as in " pass me a cold tinnie from the fridge " . I hope that answers your question ?

They are liked by some, but not me. There are better beers out here. :-)

I'm still laughing...maybe I used too much lubrication!

[KrazyIvan]

Surely. I found out I was going about my nib grinding all wrong.
