What Pens Are You Using Today 2020

[loganrah]

This morning I took out my MB 149 to a cafe to do some work. Then I realised I needed a contrasting colour. Luckily I had this Kaweco sport I found in the car this morning with me. Converted with plumbers tape to an eyedropper it started up immediately even though I had misplaced it for a couple of months.

 

A contrast in size and appearance but with MB Permanent Blue and Diamine Marine they lay down nicely matched lines.

I used a Jinhao x750 in checkerboard, filled from a sample of Pure Pens Flower of Scotland, and a Visconti Merry-Go-Round with B nib filled with Visconti Purple. It is a Rembrandt pen. I put a Nemosine 0.8mm stub nib on the Jinhao.

Today I’m bringing out the heavy hitters: Pelikan M1000, Montblanc 149 (Calligraphy Flex) and Conid Kingsize Bulkfiller.

@ Tasmith -- That is an awesome looking pen rest!

As for the pen, my one and only Waterman is an Exclusive (similar in style to the Executive).

Back on topic.... Today it's been the the Plum Demi 51, M nib, with Diamine Tudor Blue, and the Vibrant Pink al-Star, 1.1 stub, with diluted Robert Oster Carbon Fire (every time I go to flush the pen out, I end up just refilling it with distilled water instead... and continuing to write with the diluted ink...).
