I'm not sure how I missed this final comparison of The Ten.

 

This budding inkophile, at least, has found these reviews and comparisons very enlightening and useful.

 

Thanks for all the time and hard work! :clap1:

 

exactly what TWRDO said!

Hi,

 

You're welcome!

 

Bye,

S1

Great find! In case you haven't found them too already, note that Sandy also introduced her OOTTs for other colours as well...

I think we can make this thread active again. The photo bucket links still work. We would need to copy the entire URL then copy the photo, rename the photo and then edit the original post to add the photos.

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

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

That would be great! Also a nice way to remember some of Sandy1’s many contributions to this community.

Anyone know where @Sandy1 is?

I miss the reviews and contributions, I still refer back to her reviews very often.

I have sent her a p.m. and have not received a response. You too could PM her and perhaps get a reply.

Oh gosh, that's very sad. That possibility occurred to me, but I was hoping she just lost interest.

I was keeping my eyes somewhat open on a new post or news, but obv don't read every thread, so missed this.

I considered that, but when someone hasn't logged in for years I wonder whether the pm reaches them at all (assuming the person just loses interest and doesn't participate in the forum).

🥺 She was my first real "guru" on here. I hung on her every word when I first got into the hobby and bought inks purely because she said they were good or had "majik".

I'm glad her expertise and memory will carry on among us.

If you can find that for me, I will notate her account.

That makes me sad, too. I used to PM her earlier (actually around 10 years ago) and IYAM she was always very interested in inks (more so than pens). She was often a long time away from home (in Britain), e.g. somewhere between Africa and the Far East. Yes, she made some of the most valuable and extensive reviews....

Okay, I fixed the images that are linked in this comparison.  I'm going to post in Inky Thoughts asking for help to save these images.

This is really sad news. Sandy1 was an amazing person, really funny, tireless in her appreciation of inks and super smart. I loved reading her reviews and valued her insights. Sandy1, you will always be loved and remembered! 💕

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
