Parker 51 - italic nib ? by Andy Dingley
I like my 51s as pieces of design, but unfortunately I'm not too keen on writing with them. The nibs are a little too broad for my taste (my writing tends to the unitdy and this makes it worse), and they all write like a firehose. I'm also trying to learn an italic hand - currently using a...

lapping film? by David P
I'm considering trying to smooth one of my nibs a bit. Having read up a bit on the subject it seems that people like the 3M lapping sheets (1M?). I've done some google'ing (froogle'ing too), and I haven't found an obvious place from which to order the sheets. Can they be found locally? Home...
