Why is my Custom 823 skipping when I write?
A common experience for first time users of vacuum filler fountain pens, is writing with the end cap screwed down, which obstructs ink flow. To write, it is recommended that you gently unscrew the end cap to allow a gap of 2mm for ink to flow from the main ink chamber to the feed. Once done writing, screw the end closed, taking care not to overtighten as this can damage threads or cause stress on the barrel.
