Hello From Salgado Da Ameixa C(Reative)T(Ailoring)S(Tudio)

I know it's a mouth full! My friends just call me Jen. Long story with the name (SDACTS for short). What brings me to FPN? My estranged older brother came to visit me in LA to set old bones about two months ago. He brought with him a pen he had turned himself; which was fascinating to me since I've been writing for as long as I can remember. The more he showed it, the more intrigued I got. So I spent roughly two full days reading everything I could find on left handed fountain penning, script lessons, you tube videos, etc. I felt like I found a missing part of myself. The inks; the nibs; the feeds; the filling mechanisms; the notebooks and paper stock; Wax Stamps!the community, need I go on? I discovered The Goulet Pen Company; Brian and Rachel (I'm completely enamored IN A PLATONIC, NON-STALKER WAY!). In the meantime, my brother turned me my very own fp and asked me my thoughts. WELL! Armed with so much meaty information, I dug in; and oh boy, did I enjoy that! So, I guess it seemed only natural that I should now turn to the FPN to share with others that have the same appreciation for inky hands. I hope I make a valuable addition to the newbie bench :-)

I'm glad it's in a non-stalker way! ;) Wow, that's really nice to have a pen made by your brother-- what a great keepsake and I hope you have many more years of brotherly love. Can you show us the pen??

I hope I can call you Jen as well. Welcome! I'm a fellow lefty. When the fp bug bites, it can infect you very quickly. See you around crazy town.

Welcome, Jen !

 

You can't just say that someone MADE a personal fountain pen for you, then move on to the next subject.

The obsessive element here at FPN needs photographs. Please. WE They have to see the pen.

Glad to have you, and your pen, joining us.

Hi Jen and welcome to FPN

 

Wow, that's nice for an introduction to fountainpens: a pen made by your prodigal brother....

Talk about making up....

 

Enjoy that pen (and we DO like a picture of that beauty after you have settled in here...)

      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
