Ugh. I noticed one of my WingSung 698 pens had some ink in the cap and while cleaning it I found huge cracks in the section. I rarely used this one and it never left my desk.

I wouldn't have put money on this one cracking before any of my TWSBIs, but here we are.

The section is technically replaceable but so far I haven't found a vendor selling the parts.

I was able to get the cap liner out and clean that, at least.

Photo of a partially disassembled fountain pen. The body and cap of the pen are clear with gold accents. The nib and feed and laying separately at the bottom of the photo. The body of the pen is in the top right. There are large cracks in the section that radiate out from the tip. The cap is laying at the top left of the photo. There is blue ink inside the cap between the cap liner and the outer cap.
