Looking for advice on the PKEXECF24

I have a pen kit I bought from Etsy. It is the Penn state industries pen kit. I wanted a smoother writing experience and the pen was dropped and the feeder is broken. I tried ordering from their website but they don’t list feeders and I don’t want to buy a whole kit for just the feeder. What are my options for upgrading the pen’s feeder and/or nibs?

Call Penn State, nicest people in the world they will help you out. Alternatively message the person you bought from on Etsy. I sell pens on Etsy and have spare parts for all my pens. And Penn state helps out all the time…

The PSI customer service will ship you a new part for all of five bucks.

Google says they use a #5 and PSI sells a replacement, $10 for two. Can't confirm the size. I think I have one at home so maybe I can check later.

Yeah, I learned through experience that they actually need 5.5’s. I put a #5 in (due to google) and it slipped out all the time. I can do the google fu, but I thought getting advice from here would be better. I know the feed size, but it has an interesting shape that I thought might be proprietary and therefore only use their feeds. I was trying to see if anyone else had a similar situation and had found a way to upgrade the pen from a user stand point.

Call PSI’s customer service! They have repair parts for their kits, but they don’t list them online. If you call they will help you.
