This was so interesting! What is a FA nib? I don't have a flex nib yet, only one stub nib. 😇💜🙏🙌
@@sushanart welcome to the world of flex!😍 FA is a Pilot nib that is absolutely delicious! It’s not exactly a flex (you could break it if you push down too hard = “springing the nib”). It’s a soft nib that gives you that dimension of thick and thin strokes but feels more fluid and bouncy than a stub.
If you’re interested in flex, I would suggest getting a Creaper! $20 to see if you like the way your writing looks
@@sushanart here’s a link to my beloved 823 with the FA nib. The Pilot CH912 also has this nib at a lower price 💕
Is it a Falcon nib? I don't see any link, but YT removes links sometimes.
@ yes! Falcon nib 😍
Did you ever try those penny pens out, or they not your bag? They seem difficult for me to write with.
@@tbayless8324 they are so beautiful that I haven’t tried them yet. I reached out to the seller and he said he has many more. I was going to ask my Pen Club to see if they are interested in getting some. I’m thinking now that I should at least try one!
You have to try fountain pen revolution ultra extra flex nib. Not very expensive and amazing flex.
@@TrehanMD I’m glad FPR worked for you! As for me, yeah… so… I didn’t have a good experience with it! I ended up getting 2 flex nibs from them the pen railroaded, had hard starts or would just dry out. I had my husband work on it because I got so frustrated! A pen club friend told me that she dumped her FOR pen and put the nib on a hand-turned pen. It writes beautifully! I may try that as well.
@@TrehanMD I have a video on it from a few years ago that shows how it was right from the start
