GW Modular Glass Nib Component in Brooks PM5 Resin
The modular glass nib dip pen component is a glass nib threaded into a specially fit section, designed to fit most GW Pens fountain pen bodies. This resin is PM5 from Jonathon Brooks of Carolina Pen Company. The section dimensions are nearly identical to the sections already used in your favorite GW pen. Simply unscrew the fountain pen section and replace it with this. The glass nib does not have the ability to connect to an internal reservoir such as a cartridge or converter. It is meant to be used as a dip pen with a bottle of your favorite ink. Because there is no feed, you're not limited to using only fountain pen ink. Any calligraphy ink can also be used! These glass nibs are perfectly suited for this Glow-in-the-dark ink from Jacques Herbin (not suitable for fountain pens). When you're finished, you can rinse the nib under water and cap the pen with the glass nib still in place, or return the glass nib and section to the included glass vial. The included glass vial has a cotton ball at the bottom to protect the glass nib. If the nib should ever break, I do sell replacement nibs that screw right into place.
