Who has a modified nib?

[AllenG]

What did you have done and what do you think of it, oh, and who did the mods?

I'm waiting on a flex nib from Richard Binder that should be here Monday or Tuesday.
Im now wanting to have an italic nib ground down to a .7 oblique.

Pelikan M200 BB CI'd from Pendemonium. Great experience.

My favorite nib is a factory OM nib on a Pelikan 140.

I do on a Lamy 2000 M and it was done by Pendleton Brown, I have to admit I wish I hadn't had it done.
There isn't anything wrong with the work I just prefer how the pen wrote before as to after.

My favorite is a Greg Minuskin fine stub on my Visconti Wall Street. Close runners up are a Binder Medium CI on a Pelikan M605 and a Binder 0.7 stub on a Stipula Etruria. Penleton has done some nib work for me, but I sold my Pendleton Point (I loved the nib but didn't like the pen).

I have a Richard Binder modified Parker Sonnet (cursive italic), and a Nathan Tardif modified Sheaffer Snorkel (stubbed).

I didn't know that Nathan Tardif did nib work...I thought he was just an ink man (Noodler's)! Is this something recent?

Long, long time ago -- he's retired from that work.

Nathan has done several repairs for me in the past. But we're talking late 1990's then.

I initially glossed over this post, because I didn't think I had anything to contribute. But my FC B&B Essential has a Masuyama medium stub! yay!

I have a broad cursive italic nib ground by Letta at Pendemonium. She does great work for a very resonable price. This is a standard modern German nib (Bock or JoWo) that came in a Taccia Momenta.

My FC B&B has a cursive italic from Masuyama, its great but if you hold it wrong it'll almost slice the paper it's so sharp

 

[mikeschu]

My Edison Beaumont has an EF nib tweaked for flow by Binder. I also had at one point a FC B&B Essential with a Masuyama needlepoint nib, but have since sold that pen off.

My Binder full flex came in today.

I got a Visconti Van Gogh and an M200 ground to butterline stubs by Pendleton Brown. The Visconti had a broad nib and the M200 had a medium. Both are nice. The Visconti is a pleasure to write with. The M200 is a little sharper. Fun definitely!

I have two modified nib, the first one I modified myself with the help of an over excited and attention wanting german Shepard as well as a hardwood floor...

And the second one is my parker vac which a lovely (so lovely) member here did for me making it a bit more crispy then usual
