Hit my first fountain pen today that was so clogged I had to use the ultrasonic cleaner. Hero 1086, had Diamine Ancient Copper in it, but it dried out. Nothing would flow through the feed even after soaking for a couple hours and trying a bulb syringe. After 90 sec in the ultrasonic cleaner I could get some water through, two more rounds got it flowing freely so I could flush it the rest of the way. I'll have to keep a closer eye on that one.

Year-end price increases were high, but I didn’t want anything
New shelf for ink and other items
It replaces the little cabinet I had ink in.
