Hi all, I posted this one on the Dark Side as well, but didn't get the flood of secret tips & tricks I'd been hoping for...
Any and all techniques/suggestions for dealing with the PenBBS nib units are welcome, as I'm sure that others will be able to use this info for their own situations as well.
My specific issue right now is that when I swapped a Nemosine nib into the PenBBS sleeve (with stock feed) the nib is not held as tightly as the original. It's not flopping around in there, but the nib can definitely be pushed off center with much less pressure than I'd like. I'm wondering if anyone has modified the feed to accept the full length of a Nemosine #6, rather than shortening the nib? In hindsight that seems like it might work better as there is more total volume of nib taking up space in the collar... I didn't do it that way though, since I had wanted to preserve the ability to put the original nib back in if needed. I do have the parts pack on the way though, so I'll probably try it that way once I have spares on hand. I also have an FNF ebonite feed/collar set on the way, any experiences/tips on using that would be much appreciated as well!
TIA for any input you may have!
