I recently did a custom cast fountain pen for a customer who is running into some issues. Never having used a fountain pen myself I thought it best to ask the experts on the IAP. His question can be found below so I would kindly ask for all possible ideas. Thanks in advance everyone:biggrin:
"I inked up the pen (using the refillable cartridge you included and some Noodler's Ink) and started writing. After about a page, a huge glob of ink came out. I cleaned the nib, made sure that it and the feed were securely pushed in place, and tried again. Same thing happened. And again. And again. The only reason I'm mentioning this to you at all is because I'm wondering if you've ever had this happen with a pen and do you know of any solutions. Since the feed component appears to be one molded piece, I'm wondering if I should just order a replacement?"
