Thank you so much bro. I bought a Parker fountain pen of worth 400 bucks and it was not working. I got very angry that I wasted my money. But then I used your trick and pen was working after a minute. I am very happy now. Thank you
After pushing the new cartridge in I take it out again and dip the tip of the nib in its opening. Not pressing on the cartrige or anything but ensuring the nib touches some ink and slurps it. The procedure primes the feed at both ends and capillary action does the rest.
Just subscribed to your channel! Suoer thank you for this video. I got a new Kaweco fountain pen and it won’t write. I tried the othe stuff I’ve seen here in youtube and still it won’t write. I tried yiur suggestion and voila! It’s working perfectly fine! Super thank you!❤️
Great video Ian! Hey man, on Dave Parker’s review of your pen, he never mentions exactly the color scheme of his pen. I didn’t see an exact match on your website to his pen. Are you going to ever run that color combo again? It is gorgeous!! Cheers from NC!

Very good tips! Thanks! My Pocket 6 pair are total works of art, I love them.
Thank you! You helped me get the ink flowing in my brand new Platinum fountain desk pen. Whew!
What is the price and from where you purchased it
Very helpful tutorial

I didn’t know about the water trick. I ink syringed the cartridge then dipped my pen in the ink bottle.
I’ve done that too. It’s all about the capillary action in the feed, and priming it with water or ink.
Thank you! It works.
When touching the nib with your finger, make sure your finger has absolutely no oils on it as this can inhibit the flow of ink on the nib.
Lightly squeeze the cartridge !! It works !! Never jerk the pen !!

Never knew about the water trick i just wait a few minutes til the feed gets saturated 👏
I just let it sit point down in a cup for like 30 seconds
I've used water but it just takes way longer cause of the watered down ink
