The LC2 Speedball nib is a bit of a bugger. I have to use (comparitively) a lot of force to drag it down on the verticals, which is making them wobbly.
However, I'm happy with the evenness of the spacing.
And I was happy with the of the spacing with the Brause nib the other day.
So I reckon I'm ready to try to reproduce the Gods with Snow quote exactly as is shown in Mark Drogin's book
ie
- same nib width, x-height as shown in the scan above. Including the ticks on the diamonds which can create a challenge. You want the spacing of the verticals to be one pen width, but also have enough space to have discernable ticks on the top and bottom of each diamond without them crashing into the ticks of the diamond next to it and looking like a join instead.
