Description

We can customize the nib on pens bought from us.  When ordering a pen, add Nib Customization to your order and we will have the pen worked on by our trusted nib specialist. Expect a (on average) 2 week lead time added to your order. As soon as the pen and customization are ready (and your pen has passed our test) it will be send to you. The following customizations are offered:

 
STUB
Stub nibs have a thicker downstroke and a thinner side stroke, providing your writing extra character. The sides are rounded, what makes a stub still very user friendly.

 
Cursive Italic
CI nibs have a thicker downstroke and a thinner side stroke, providing your writing extra character. These provide a larger line variation but are less user friendly as a stub, as a CI is less rounded in the corners.

 
Left Oblique
Cut at an angle, suitable if you rotate your nib.

 
Right Oblique
Cut at an angle, suitable if you rotate your nib and write with your left hand.

 
Architect
This gives a thinner downstroke and a wider side stroke. Giving a nice line variation to your writing. It is sensitive to the angle you hold the pen, please prodide the following information us information about the angle that you hold the pen when writing.

 
Needlepoint
Reduces the tip to a very fine size, suitable for very small writing.

 
Increase inkflow
Do you like the pen but want it to write wetter than it is by default.

 
Decrease ink flow
Do you like the pen but want it to write dryer than it is by default.

 
Tune and smoothen
Your pen will be inked and the pens smoothness and ink flow will be tested and adjusted if needed Select your preferred customization in order to see the specific price.

*Pens with adjusted nibs are not eligible for exchange or return nor can an order be cancelled once taken into production

**at the moment this service is offered only on pens bought from us and the option is ordered at the same time as the pen

This is true craftmenship- thank you Bruce for creating such a special writer. The nib is crisp but not scratchy and I love the line variation. Especially my „print type“ letters look really cool now.
Thank you also for the lovely handwritten note- I might want to get lettering courses from you to improve my writing ??.
Have a great day!

The nibmeister did an excellent job on the nib of my Leonardo Momento Zero M transformed into cursive italic. The contrast between the vertical and horizontal strokes is incredible, and the writing remains smooth. This way, my calligraphy looks superb without too much effort. I have already used the services of the Fontoplumo nibmeister several times and have always been very satisfied.

I ordered a medium cursive italic lamy steel nib and it is heaven! The nibmeister did a wonderful job, the lines are crisp and the flow is great. Im so happy I put the nib on a lamy studio, because I can also write in reverse and get thick, juicy lines when I dont feel like writing fancy.

Prima volta di un pennino elaborato da Fontoplumo , sono molto molto soddisfatto. Nello specifico un lamy B trasformato in corsivo italico. Grande variazione del tratto e piacevolezza nell'uso, anche con scrittura "veloce" . Sicuramente ne seguirà un altro per aggiornare la seconda stilo Lamy Al Star in possesso.

I purchased a wonderful fine to cursive italic nib customization - writes like a dream, smooth with a hint of feedback as it should. Every piece of writing looks beautiful! Can highly recommend. Thank you very much, Bruce!
