■■■■ BASIC DETAILS
▶ #3776 Century Custom (Eureka aSymmetry) (M nib)
the nib is smoother than the original, because i did additional point smoothing grind.
; also, the nib is more juicy than original, because i increased tine width.
▶ This fountain pen is hand made by "the Fountainpen Researcher"
(All parts handmade by one person, except the nib & ink converter)
▶ Ebonite grip, barrel, cap, and feed:
thick unibody structure, designed to be crackproof for decades.
designed to achieve maximum durabiliy, while suppressing clunkiness.
▶ platinum #3776 14K gold nib
▶ nib length (outside): 24 mm , nib weight: 0.65~0.7g
▶pen weight: 27~28g ,pen length: 150~155mm (capped), 145mm (uncapped)

▶ origin of materials: ebonite(Japan), urushi(Japan), silver(S.Korea)
▶ urushi dry time: 1+ months
▶ As time passes, the urushi colors will become more vivid
(It takes 6~12 months for urushi to achieve maximum hardness. Do not expose the urushi to strong shock / abrasion prior to the maximum hardness. Urushi cannot be scratched by fingernail when dried for 1 week ~ 1 month.

■■■■ ADDITIONAL DETAILS
▶ I do additional work on the nib with my own technique:
the nib(with my tweaks) is entirely different from original factory condition.
1) nib point grinding 1 (to make it write smoother)
2) nib point grinding 2 (left/right tines equal)
3) nib sides grinding (left/right tines equal)
4) nib surface polishing
5) nib ink flow adjustment (greater flow)
6) nib tine adjustment
below is an example of #3776 EF nib
▶ the ebonite feed has greater ink flow than the original plastic feed,
also more resistant to drying when the cap is open.
▶ cap: internal teflon grip protector, which prevents micro scratches that occur @ frontal grip section, when opening and closing the cap, over the years.
▶ ink reservoir: converter (replaceable), eyedropper (silicone sealing required)
▶ (this detail is only for pens with silver urushi inlay technique)
the engravings are done after the urushi layers are accumulated.
the engraving depth is very deep, which reaches all the way down to the surface of the ebonite.
after that, silver urushi (silver 99.9%) is used to fill the engravings all the way to the top.
after proper drying time, surface grinding + micro grinding + polishing is done.
