When someone has to deal with vintage fountain pens, nothing is more common then haaving to do with malfunctions or damages suffered by an object whose age could easily exceed their own. In this page we collected a series of articles, references and resources that we believe may be useful for those who want to make their repairs, (materials, equipment, reports, notes, references to professionals). |

This page collects resources and useful information for repair, and summarizes them in an index. Materials and equipment are instead here. An index of repair topics discussed on the forum is here. Being the result of personal experience of non-professional repairers, no responsibility is assumed for any short-term or long-term damage. However, they will still appreciate corrections and suggestions for which reference is made to the forum. |

In order to make repairs, even the most simpler,some materials and a minimum of equipment are still needed, making it possible to operate adequately on an old fountain pen. Many of these can also be used for maintenance and repair of modern pens. We gathered in this page everything present on this site relating to materials and repair equipment, with a list and a summary classification of the same. |

Although it is possible to make some repairs at hoe, sometime they are beyond an hobbist reach and in some cases it is virtually impossible to carry them out if you are not equipped with the appropriate tools. For these cases the following is a list of professional restorers, who you can contact.
