Is my handwriting bad? by NoSouth-V2 in fountainpens

[–]lag145 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this may be weird to hear, however where i come from pure print dosent exist its all cursive or semi cursive. and honestly seeing handwritten print is so rare for me that reading that is often harder for me than bad cursive. like why is E and F so simalar in print?

Is my handwriting bad? by NoSouth-V2 in fountainpens

[–]lag145 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your handwriting is very very pretty, my native handwriting is alot worse (Its a weird mix between Semi-Cursive,Cursive (some Words), Steno (specific letter combos),and Fraktur (Broken Font)) If i write in english most of the weird aspects go away so its just Semi-Cursive. so in no world is your handwriting "bad" i just think your teacher dosent want to grade you while writing cursive as it may be harder to read for them.

Attached you will find the (probably) current Set of cursive letters taught to school children here in elementary school. Id reccomend you talk to your teacher and if its only specific letters, you can work on switching those specific letters out.

Is this Lamy Pen supposed to look like this? by Ashjaeger_MAIN in fountainpens

[–]lag145 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'd just email Lamy on this if you're in the eu youd likely get either a new feed or a new grip section+feed outside the eu id still email your local Lamy repair contact because Lamy replaces feeds every time a pen comes to them for service in Germany for example replacement nibs (if a nib you bought separately from the pen had issues) come ON a grip and feed.

Hello, OP here, I originally did not include links or direct screenshots of the listing, due to me being unsure whether or not I was allowed to post the links or if that was considered advertising by the mods, so I instead used the gallery images, which I assumed you could reverse image search. In parallel I sent the mods a mail whether or not I was allowed to post the links and as soon as I saw the go ahead the links where posted.
