Noodler's Music Nib Neponset


sirach

Recommended Posts

Beautiful picture. Gorgeous Violin! The piece is from Holst's Jupiter ... the church music hymn would be "Oh God Beyond all Praising" if you go to this you-tube video ...

... the familiar melody starts around 3.06

 

This conductor looks ridiculous. I see no correlation between his erratic movements and the music, tempo, or anything going on around him....

 

edit: I recognize this! It took till about 5:00 but I've heard it before.

I loved my 7th grade music appreciation class. I called my teacher a few years ago (I'm 31) asking him about a piece I heard in there and he just about fell over himself that a student remembered anything from that class. I LOVED that class.

 

edit again:

Maybe my video and sound are just way off. The whole thing just looks and sounds funny. But he's still goofy lookin. :)

 

It's not just you .... he is a goofy conductor... if you watch the orchestra...most of them are not actually looking at him, not good... versus... Andris Nelsons is a very very good conductor seen here

and here
he is also goofy... but his orchestras seem to love him...

I'm looking forward to seeing this pen in production. Hopefully it will happen sooner rather than later.

I will gladly take your unwanted Noodler's pens. Don't throw them away.

Hope so too because even though I can use a Kaweco Sport unposted I love my big pens :) I also love my wide nibs too!

I'm in a constant state of cat-like readiness!!!

I got to have one. :puddle:

Do not let old pens lay around in a drawer, get them working and give them to a new fountain pen user.

I'd love to be able to put those big nibs in my own pens. :cloud9:

So would I. I like huge nibs and I like your pens.

Great - happy that you went to the source! :thumbup: Please keep us posted when you hear something. Now that I think about it, I miss his videos and commentaries.

 

Hope to hear an update soon. Thanks for taking the initiative!

I want one of these pens! Who do I have to bribe, blackmail, or give a whack to the back of the head to get one. To my fellow FPN comrades who what to storm Castle Tardiff, I think we can distract the attack Catfish in the moat by feeding them politicians who propose legislation that has a lot of "Pork" in it. I also thinking if the tactical strike fails we can lay siege to it and use psychological warfare by continually playing speeches or press conferences of Ben Bernanke.

I would be interested also, in knowing where to find such a pen.

 

 

You bring the map to Nathan Tardiff's house and grappling lines, I'll bring the nightvision goggles and safecracking equipment.

 

:ninja: Ready

I believe I still have some tape recording equipment left over from Watergate we could use... :blink:

 

I'll bring bail money.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

You know, I'm starting to think that I want to go along on this "raid". And sell popcorn :eureka: . Just *think* how much money I'll make -- not to mention the entertainment value....

And I don't even particularly *want* a Neponset -- music nib or not (like I said before, Konrads are a perfect size for my hand). Although the one from the original post is pretty....

Actually, though, while yinz are all breaching the parapets, if the FPN Ninja Posse happens to run across a couple of gallon size bottles of Kung Te Cheng in your travels I would not be amiss to, er, acquiring one or two. Just sayin'....

But no, you can't use my bottle of BSB for the fingerprint scanner to open Nathan's vault. Go buy your own bottles.

I'm dying to know when this will be on the market. I want to go outside Nathan's moated house, the one with the sharks with frickin' laser beams on their heads, and wave money at him and/or beg. Or both. I'm not too proud.

Oh, pens, all of you are my favorite! TWSBI, Jinhao, Montblanc, Waterman, Danish Penol De Luxe flexy pen, Cross, -- I can't choose between you! That would just be wrong.

That is one colorful pen.

I've not made the jump to over-sized pens yet.

I grew up in silver dime days, when most pens were standard.

Should we warn Nathan that the barbarians are at the gates?

It sounds like it time to load all the pens again

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
