i stupidly pulled too hard on my new yellow lamy safari and the whole nib unit came out. i stupidly pushed it in the wrong way and it got stuck to the point the feed and section were irreparable so it had to be chucked. i thankfully have some spare parts and i made this:
i like the look of the all-yellow Safari but the translucent section of an al-star looks much nicer. happy accident i guess! i did salvage the nib before throwing the feed. i already have a few spares but they can come in handy for times like this.
don’t let my stupidity put you off buying a lamy safari btw; they’re great, relatively cheap pens with good build quality when you don’t brute force something.
