Hello, Good evening

I would like to know if there is a way to open the stylus of my graphics tablet, because I completely forgot to change the nib, so now I'm stuck with the nib completely stuck inside and I can't remove it.

P.S.: It's a Wacom Intuos Draw Pen (small)

    Bonjour
    Excerpt from:
    http://101.wacom.com/UserHelp/fr/TOC/CTL-490.html
    Replacing the stylus nib

    To protect your tablet from scratches and ensure optimal performance, replace the nib as soon as it becomes too short. A nib should be replaced when it measures approximately 1 mm in length.

    For the Intuos Pro, you will find replacement nibs and a nib extractor inside the base of the stylus holder.
    For the Intuos, additional nibs are provided in a small bag or inside the compartment lid located at the back of the Intuos.

    If you need stylus nibs or accessories for your stylus tablet, visit the Wacom store.

    To replace the stylus nib:

    Using the nib extractor, tweezers, fine pliers, or a similar tool, grasp the old nib and pull it straight out of the stylus.
    Insert the new nib into the stylus, pushing it gently and firmly until it is fully seated.

      Okay, but I was just asking if we could open the stylus to remove the lead.

        If the lead hasn’t been changed... it’s no longer there.
        We need to put another one in, right?

      I can't because the lead is stuck inside the stylus.
