Look What I Found Under The Christmas Tree

That Loom is pretty slick! Nice Christmas present!

 

Indeed, I'm very happy with it. It's a smooth writer.

Unfortunately, I didn't come with a converter, and my SI converters don't fit.

Nice bag, and ink, and pen!

 

I stick with the cartridges and flush and fill them with an art syringe. You can get one an art supply store or order from your favorite online pen and ink shop.

But if you'd rather pif that ink, I'm in.

Very nice pen and ink combo.

 

No experience with the Loom so not certain what converter it takes. Perhaps someone who has one will come along....

Resources such as people on FPN say that a Schmidt K2 will fit, and is rebranded by Faber-Castell. Prices seem low in either case.

Thanks for the tips, I'll definitely consider the syringe. Also the converter is an option of course.

I happen to like to rotate my pens and ink. So I don't need a whole lot of ink in my pens.

Hey there!

 

Sorry to keep my fans waiting, but I managed to ink up the pen and these are the results.

 

Don't judge me on the handwriting, this is not my best effort.

      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. 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
