So, I no longer use a cumbersome Mouse.

I have the Wacom CTL-480s and it's great BUT I am a bit heavy handed and getting through Nibs faster that they suggest - I would like White Nibs this time (I like White Hardware).

Before I buy some (From New York at the moment) I thought it worth asking here if anybody has any suggestions on where to buy them ?

Wacom would be the obvious choice but they don't offer these in White :(

ok, It will take me years to wear the five supplied down but when you need to draw something intricate you need a new nib - the flattened ones are fine for ever day use.

I have been signing my exclusive Mug designs which is going down well.

OR, this is more ME :) Ear.. (http://f0rmaldehyde.deviantart.com/art/Making-Wacom-nibs-343443919)

Now we all know you're into a bit of heath robinson so why not make your own :wink:

or bamboo (http://j-humphries.deviantart.com/journal/Make-Your-Own-Wacom-Nibs-347761879)

or just buy them from wacom eu (http://uk.shop.wacom.eu/search?sSearch=nibs&sPartner=shop_adwords&gclid=CKDK-ofxlrsCFSYHwwodK2kA-A)

Yes, I need 1.65mm Strimmer wire - I'm onto it.

I realised last night that I cant get an accurate width of my original nibs with my current set of verniers so waiting for a good set of digital ones to arrive.
