What kind of maintenance do you do on your fountain pens?

I have a bit of a 'habit' myself, but I can't say I experience any need for real maintenance.




Not OP, but in my piston-filler pens I try to lube the gaskets with a tiny amount of silicone grease once a year or so.


Not the poster, but I flush the ink holder twice or thrice a year. And wash the nib under running water every few months.

Also if you change the ink brand. Or colours.
