Help! Vanishing Point problem
shane_in_atx | Jun 15 2006
I just bought a new Namiki/Pilot Vanishing point, and I'm having a problem loading it with ink. I want to try it out using the included ink cartridge, but the converter for using bottle ink is wedged in so tight that I can't get it out. I just spent about 15 minutes rocking it back and forth to get it out of its seat, and it's still won't budge. It seems like they superglued it at the factory. 9 Comments

Very glad you got the bottom of it!! Sorry I didn't post with a solution, Shane. I didn't feel like I could address the problem as I don't have a vanishing point. Very glad you found FPN as well! I have to admit that there is some grace in the older technologies. FP's are definitely one of them. I just tried to use a G2 today and I was struggling! :) It's been almost 6 months on FP's now, and I'm so glad I've made the switch. Funny that I've begun to have problems with other pens. ;) [BTW, as a pipe-smoker, I have to admit that there is a lot of joy in that old technology as well. I'm the first to admit it's a vice, but well, we have to have some vices, eh? ;) I abhorr the "cig"... nasty uncouth things they are... ;)] » POSTED IN:
