Hello from Somerset UK
« on: August 19, 2023, 06:14:00 PM »
Hello,
Thank you for letting me join your forum.
I have been interested in fountain pens for a while, and recently started to experiment with flexible nibs.
Today I tried an oblique holder for the first time, I made a bit of a mess, but it was great fun as I started to get used to it.
I am looking forward to trying my hand at learning copperplate.
Best wishes,
Pete

Hi Pete,
It’s always fun to experiment! Obliques can take some getting used to but in the long run can help with the angle and keeping smooth edges on both sides. Let us know if you have questions as you go! Welcome to Flourish and keep experimenting!  :-*
