So I made my first mop, a travel size shampoo thing with a piece of sock as the nib it works decent for a first timer, but I have a few questions.... Should I make the nib rolled up really tight or keep it looser? What do u prefer for a nib?

I'm sorry tuco but ur worthless, just trying to get more posts or something cause ur always posting, but it's never useful.... Eitheir help or don't...

 

Stamp cleaner mops are smaller and have a very different kind of nib than a kiwi. Though, I use them very often. They're easier to carry, less messy, and a lot better with inks. I typically use my kiwi-type mops with paint.

 

Here is a stamp cleaner mop:

Kiwi mops are great still, though. If you're worried about the nib durability, take an old piece of t-shirt or cloth, and secure it around the nib with a rubber band. It increases the durability greatly.

slimline mop, 2 bucks, dopest empty ive ever bought. perfect size line and perfect drips everytime with no squeeze once the nib is broken in a bit.

empty mini mop, 3 bucks. hold a decent amount of ink and never disappoints.

 

buy about 5 extra nibs though, as they can rip pretty easily. they WILL still write fine with a shredded or even completely gone nib, the lines will just be rough around the edges. take notes kids.
