Monteverde Mega Ink Ball Problems
I recently purchased a Monteverde Mega Ink Ball, the smaller one in
burgundy. So far I've had nothing but problems with ink flow regulation in both of the roller ball tips (four are included) that I've tried. I've used both cartridge and converter and different inks all with the same result. The ink flow varies from a flood to dry line and all points in between. The is no consistency in what the pen point lays down. Has anyone out there had any experience with this instrument? Thanks, Gordon |

Monteverde Mega Ink Ball Problems
I have bought both of them and while they have been fairly good, one of the
black tips seems to have similar symptoms to yours; if I haven't written the kilometer with it yet (doubtful) then I would have to say the problem may be existing here also. My original burgundy ball is going well and the 2nd black ball is good thus far. Chuck Swisher has a post in here about them, you might want to try running water through it or using an ear dropper to shoot it through. "Gordon Mattingly" wrote in message m...

Thanks for the advice. I'll try that and see if it cures the problem. Good
luck with your Monteverdes. I may have just gotten a Friday pen. Gordon |
