Fountain pen questions

[Rmartin]

I've just made my first fountain pens this weekend. An El Grande Elite and a Jr. Gentleman II. These pens are going to someone who hasn't used a fountain pen before.

My question is, Do you supply your customers with instructions on using a fountain pen?

I would like to put together a short instruction sheet with helpful hints to using and enjoying fountain pens. Such as, installing the ink cartrage, using a converter, which inks to buy, which paper is best, stuff like that.

Can you help?

thanks

That's an excellent link, thanks!

I not sure I want to send someone to a site other than my own though. Maybe I can get permission to print and add to my pens.

You're welcome mate!

The info on using fountain pens is pretty generic and generallyh doesnt change. I'd just take what you need and do your own layout etc.

I dont think you need permission because its generic, but thats just my opinion

That's an excellent link, thanks!

Thanks Ed, you're the greatest!

Man, I thought this was going to be a lot harder to put together.
