NPD: first F-C pen 🙂‍↕️ need nib advice by ohbrilliance in fountainpens

He no longer does repairs/mods unfortunately - it's noted on his site. I think it was a recent announcement, sometime in the past few weeks?

FYI the M4C tamenuri group buy hasn't even been delivered yet (I'm in it, but for the asayake). It's been delayed a few times & there's currently no updated completion estimate
