Hi everyone!

I've been wandering around this little corner of the web since i found it yesterday...What a great place! It's nice to see that i'm not alone

I've been using/collecting FP's for the past five years or so. My collection is very modest, one or two Pelikans, Waterman, vintage MB, Parker, Sailor, Sheaffer and my latest aquisition, a Namiki VP.

I rarely write with anything but a FP so they all get regular use

Looking forward to lots of discussion on the forum.

Best regards


Peter

Hi there!

I just joined yesterday myself and everyone has been wonderful. Your collection has some top-notch brands, and it doesn't seem that modest to me

What inks are some of your favorites?

Hi Peter and welcome to FPN!

Thanks for taking the time to introduce yourself. It's always nice to know what type of pens a new member collects, how and when they started using fountain pens, etc. Everyone seems to have a different tale to tell about their fountain pen experiences so it's nice to share
I hope you enjoy the site! (it sounds like you are already! )

Welcome, Peter, from another UK-based member. Sounds like you already have a great collection of pens.

Hello Peter and welcome! Glad to have another one here from the UK. Of course, we're always glad to have another here, regardless of geography. Anyhow, nice "modest" collection you've got going. Perhaps you could tell us some specifics on the models and maybe even post a picture or two? See you around.

Thanks for the welcome

Up to now i've pretty much used inks available on the high street, Mont Blanc, Waterman and Parker (plus some Pelikan black and blue). Waterman Florida Blue is my favourite so far. I just bought some Noodlers Black and Luxury Blue so i may have a new favourite once i've tried this

The models i have are:

Pelikan M1000 Broad (My favourite)
Pelikan M805 Fine
Sailor 1911 Music
Montblanc 342 Medium(ish)
Sheaffer vintage fine (not sure of the model)
Parker Vinage Duofold Fine
Parker 17 Vintage Fine
Namiki/Pilot VP medium (My daily user)
Waterman Phileas X 3 medium
Waterman expert broad
Lammy safari Medium

Thats it so far but i'm sure there will be more before too long

Peter

Nice collection, Peter. Welcome.

Hello Peter and welcome to the Fountain Pen Nuthouse I am sure that you will love it here and gain a lot of knowledge about pens, and maybe even attend a few pen shows. Likewise, we have a section with great ink reviews on this Web site and I am sure you will find some new inks that you will fall in love with.

Welcome aboard and...

Happy Holidays!!
