Eyedropper conversion for fountain pens is something that is talked about often in the pen community but can be hard to learn for new fountain pen users. The term might be confusing, and manufacturers often don’t advertise this capability on their pens, so it’s usually more experienced pen users that get to enjoy this pen capability. We wanted to make eyedropper fountain pens less mysterious and teach you how to do your own eyedropper conversions!

Fountain pens that can be converted:

- Edison (03:57)
- Kaweco Sport (04:07)

Step by Step how to:
- Supplies needed to convert, silicone grease at a minimum but also o-rings (ideally), and ink syringe and paper towel. Platinum Preppy O-rings works with most pens (10mm diameter by 1mm thick) (05:31)
- Take the pen apart between the grip and body. Remove the cartridge or converter (06:36)
- Dab a tiny amount of silicone grease on your finger, toothpick, or q-tip and spread silicone grease on the threads between the grip and body (07:22)
- Fill the pen body with ink up to the threads, but not quite the top (07:49)
- Screw grip back onto body and set the pen aside to allow the ink to work through the feed, or 'shake it down' through if needed to use now. (08:23)
