Wacom UD-0608-A nib needed

#1 Wed, 1 Aug 2007 - 02:27 68kMLA

Anyone know where I can get a nib (or 2) for the stylus of a Wacom UD-0608-A (Artz?) graphics tablet? I have not used one of these before, but recently acquired one. I'm looking forward to trying it out.

If it helps any, I have a similar ADB tablet and don't know how to get more nibs for the pen. I ended up grinding back some of the plastic on the end of the pen to expose more nib.

Unfortunately I received it with no nib at all. :-( The nib is just a plastic piece, right? I should be able to rig something up that will work.

Yes, I think it's just a little piece of plastic; it doesn't seem to be any more than that.

If you need it, I can dig up mine and photograph the nib, just in case it's the same...

If you don't mind, that would be awesome! No hurry.

FYI in case anyone finds this post while searching for info. Here is a reply from Wacom regarding my request for a source for NIBs. The link does not work, but at least he replied promptly with info.
