    Default "Masters of The Fountain Pen" Videos

    I realize this might not be the right place but assumed it is the place where the most people to have seen the videos may hang out.

    There is a series of videos on Youtube called The Masters of The Fountain Pen. I don't know what happened but one of the videos in the series seems to have been gone for a couple of years and also seems to have disappeared from the internet entirely. I can't get the producers to respond about it at all.

    Am I the only one who remembers the video in the series that showed one of the Masters welding iridiun tipping onto nib tines and then grinding them to shape?

    I watched a few but if I remember correctly, they were filmed in Japanese. I usually don’t watch YouTube videos but listen to them as I move around the house or work on something simultaneously so subtitles don’t work well for me.

    I certainly remember watching that one, as the process of that spot welding was fascinating. Hope you find it again.
