Jr Statesman fountain pen nib problem

**Waxman** · 15th February 2015, 05:59 PM

Hi All,
I purchased a Jr Statesman fountain pen kit some time ago, I have started on the pen, checked the nib and it does not line up with the black feeder at the back, my question is how do I remove the nib to re position it, I thought I would ask before I stuff it up

any help greatly appreciated thanks, Ivan

Most of the nibs I have had experience with seem to be a press fit ( by hand) and a gentle grip and slight twisting movement with a pulling action will move them, others sometimes need to be unscrewed to release the pressure on the nib ,gentle and slow should do it

these are probably assembled by machines at the factory and sometimes even machines make mistakes hehe ! cheers ~ John

Thanks for the reply John, used your tip, it was a press fit, re assembled and ready to go

Cheers, Ivan
