The TWSBI Diamond 540 is a popular pen, partly because the nibs are so easy to swap. Here I show how to swap the whole grip section, the nib unit within the grip section to make it so you can put the stub nibs in to match your color demonstrator, and also how to change out the insert in the TWSBI cap.

We've been fans of the the Edison pens for a while, and we carry all of the Edison production line of pens. But there are several models that are still only available as part of Brian Gray's Signature (Custom) Line, and we often get questions about how the production line of pens compares to the Signature ones. Here's a tour of all the Edison models, all in one place!
