I recently purchased a couple Fabriano notebooks. they have dots no lines. Nice paper and I am seeing how well they do for me at work.

 

 

Have a great day!

Sorry for the lousy picture. Here is the final post on catching up. The photo of the pens. BTW, Uncle Red, I did see that you finally used up all the ink and had to refill. The Oxblood looks good.

What I explained was some pattern I came up with on graph paper and colored in gray and green on the zentangle, not "betweed"; betweed is the stuff in the diagonal band, which is me following along with a youtube demo. The zentangle people are very protective of their jargon and names and trademarks and patterns and stuff, so I wouldn't want you to get confused.

(Pelikan 140 - OF ..... Rohrer & Klingner Blu Mare)

 

https://www.stabilo.com/com/p/stabilo-carbothello

 

Stabilo is not a typical art supply company, most of their stuff are office or school products (made in Germany).

But the chalk-pastell pencils are made in the Czech Republic in Krumlov (on the border to Austria), it is an old town (belonged also very long to Austria in the old times) with a very long artist supply tradition (many local companies which made top notch products).

 

When Czechoslovakia still belonged to the Eastern Block trips to Krumlov (in German Krumau) were very popuplar in Austria because of 2 things:

Hand blown and grinded crystal glass and artist supplies.

Both were incredible cheap 20 - 25 years ago (but this changed quite fast with the time after the Eastern Block collapsed and the borders were open).

 

 

Btw. Blu Mare is one of my favorite inks (general speaking not only compared to other R&K inks)

My favourite Soyuz, are the two accordion fillers (fifties). The 1960 one, is a great pen, but the original nib was destroyed and I change by a Parker 51 nib (fits perfectly)...

An eye for insignificant details is a good sign you will do just fine in medical school...

As a sharp wit and powerful sarcasm is a sign that you already have.

amberleadavis: I like the Oxford Activbook a lot. The paper is perfect for fountain pens. It is white and not cream, smooth but not glossy, the lines are narrow 6 mm and the margins are good when I use one at work. The only minus is that the cover is larger than the paper which is A4. It is not the same paper as in the office books. Their paper is slightly more glossy.

It is more fun having many pens inked at the same time :)

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
