My handwriting changes from nib to nib, pen to pen. I have stock mediums nibs, OB nibs, 1.1 stubs, modded ~.7 CI, ~1.3 CI and a ~.9 CI nibs. I write differently for each one of those nibs. I find my handwriting comes out best with a .9 to a 1.2mm size, either stubbed or CI'd. I also find that I write best with a medium girthed pen, such as a TWSBI and a 146. I really thought the 149 was my preferred size, but my handwriting, coupled with the ~.7 CI nib it has, ends up just being messy. I really have to concentrate on forming my letters. On the 1.1 TWSBI, or the ~.9 CI no name home grind, I can write fast and presentable without even trying. Even switching to the the stock M and OB, I have to adjust my handwriting to suit the nib. I need at least a half page or more of writing or at least half an hour of concentrated effort to really make the transition from nib to nib. (At least it seems that way )
Anyone have this problem?
