Not to be confused with a Pen Posse at Peter's Cafe which is essentially the same thing, Farmboy claims to have a new Nib Flossing Technique and he has offered to discuss said technique.


Sunday April 27th


1:00 pm



Peter's Cafe


10 El Camino Real

Millbrae, CA 94030




I'm just posting this event for Farmboy. I take no responsibility for what happens. :-)

Ricky: "Should we be afraid?"

Todd: "Even I tremble at the thought."

FarmBoy has probably perfected Parker's Electro-smoothing.

 

Maybe some sort of plasma beam. He has the tools.

Sadly I won't be able to make this, as my wife has just reminded me that we have prior obligations. Hopefully I'll be able to meet the gang at the Flax event the following weekend.

I can't say Flax Floss three times very fast.

Hi FarmBoy, I sent you a PM regarding a custom Parker 51. Do let me know if you can assemble one for me, hopefully by this Sunday. Thanks so much!

      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.

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
