Newton Pens March Raffle - And Prom? :)

March 2014 Raffle!

Before I delay any more, I’m going to just start it. http://s0.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif?m=1394649645g

 

One extra pen will be made as a fund raiser for the Jr. Class at my school. So there will be two custom pen winners this month! Half the money from this raffle will go towards the Jr. Class at my school to help pay for prom this year - that's why two custom pens. :)

 

Note: Half the money from this raffle will go towards the Jr. Class at my school to help pay for prom this year.

 

This month, as always, you can win a custom pen by me.

Your choice model (or your own design?), material, nib and grind.

 

You could also win a mostly full bottle of P.W. Akkerman ink that I have. KoninginneNach-Blauw. One of the big bottles which are becoming a bit desirable now that they won’t be available anymore.

Also up for grabs – two mechanical pencils. Left: A Super Promecha .4mm, retractable sleeve and adjustable lead advance. Very nice pencil. Feels so great in the hand.
Right: Mitsubishi Uni .3mm, fixed sleeve, nice grip.

This is going to be such a great year.

35 tickets sold and only a couple nights left! :)

 

Whoa! Hold the phone. I'm so mixed up it's just sad. :P

Two weeks from March 14th would be the 28th - so we'll run this raffle to the 30th! That will give more people more time to participate. I knew it didn't sound right before. ;)

      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
