Inexpensive Flex Nib Fountain pen?
In this post, I want to share my Flex Nib Fountain Pen Experiment.
I was searching a good Flex Nib Fountain pen for a long time, but all the pens were out of my range and they were not available in my country, some were cheap(like noodlers and FPR Dilli) but not so flexible and smooth so I made my own Flex nib fountain pen and this one is working like a charm.
Chinese Hero 332 + Brause 66Ef dip Pen Nib=Wonderful flex Nib Fountain Pen.
The total cost of this pen is 2.5 $ (around 150 rupees). Chinese pen and this nib are easily available on eBay India.I used inexpensive Pelican 4001 ink in this experiment, it is working fine and the nib is so smooth.
The flexing is very amazing like a good expensive flex nib fountain pen.
Feed is easily feeding the ink with the very good flow, I can easily write even at the fast pace without missing the flow.I used some cotton over the Feed, I will Experiment it with some better material instead of cotton, but it is good for now.
Hero 332 inexpensive Chinese pen+ inexpensive dip pen nib(Brause 66Ef)= Amazing Flex Fountain pen.
I am very happy, I got a very good flex fountain pen within 2 dollars approximate :D :D :D. I hope this post will be useful for those who can not get or afford the flex nib fountain pen easily or in this price range.Enjoy this pen if you can make like this one.Please post your valuable comments.

DeleteThank you for your comment, yes this nib fit onto the hero feed, but feed is little bit short so I need small amount of cotton that provides continue flow of ink. I am trying to make a custom feed for this pen, but the writing experience of this pen is very good. :D
ReplyDeleteHey, are you in the market for something a little fancier in that same vein? I'm coming out with cheaper options soon.

DeleteSir, your pens look nice but they're very expensive.
DeleteHi! Can you describe exactly how you replaced the Hero nib into the Brause nib?? I don't understand what you meant by putting cotton over the feed. Thank you for your help.
ReplyDeleteHi,
Deleteputting cotton means, i did not have exact size feed for ink flow so i had to use cotton for ink flow. :) I hope this helps.
Well Prateek,
