Sharing Vintage Flex Fountain Pens

[@monkfan72]

I gotta get my pens inked when my eyes are fixed. Great pens! Thank you for sharing them! ❤

Best of luck to you with your eyes, your inks, and your pens. Thank you too for your kind words. These things are just so much fun...

Pretty cool, thanks. Maybe the pen started railroading because it was getting low on ink? I decided not to go to the Dallas Pen Show. I didn't want to deal with the pain. But I didn't have much money to spend anyway.

Thank you. All of the pens were filled fully. The Waterman's railroaded after a lot of very wet and very broad writing. That nib is so flexible and gets so wide that no feed could keep up with it. That's normal. The Wilson is fine also. The only mystery is why the Sheaffer was railroading, and it has been hard starting, so it doesn't have anything to do with how full it is, and twice I've pulled on the lever to prime it and a huge dollop off ink was expelled, so it's not low on ink.
