Sometimes I find my desk by putting everything on another flat surface. It's sort of embarrassing.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

I especially like the phone set up as a screen and the FPN webpage. Great job.

I just noticed your comment. There's not a phone in my photo, I think you were looking at my Lego-style calendar. It was pretty small in the original photo and did look like a phone because of the bright center and black border. But it's just plastic blocks that I take apart on the 1st of every month and reassemble for the new month's calendar.

My room/desk space. I think it's quite neat for a student bedroom.

Such a beautiful picture. Almost artistic, for some reason. This could go in some sort of photography competition.

Very cool. Where's that guy who goes rolling back and forth through there like Dr. Evil?

 

That is one organized space. I wonder where the pens are kept.

The desk at home.

Sometimes the right side looks like this:

and the left side like this:

But more often than not, it looks like this:

I have one of the office desk somewhere - I'll have to dig it up.

The work desk from a couple of years ago. I'll get an update today (we got updated stuff).

That's a serious number of monitors.

Plus a laptop in between the two keyboards ;)

I'm a GIS Analyst/Cartographer - you need a lot of real estate when making maps. I didn't get a new photo, but we now have four monitors on the desktop, still have two for the laptop.

 

I typically use three of the four and save the laptop for when I'm working on two projects at once.

Of course I would like to say that my desk is an heirloom which has been in the family for generations ...

... but the truth is, I picked it up for $80 on Gumtree a few months ago :D

      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
