Good point...

 

What did you do for lunch?

 

Prove it.

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

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

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

Is there still any interest out there? I wouldn't mind starting a group. Perhaps Meetup.com would be a better place to organize though? I just realized I haven't looked there for a group as of yet. There could already be one!

I have been slaving away on a dissertation recently but might be interested in meeting up again some time soon!

Yeah, we could get our fingers dirty! Since we last met I think I have only one new pen (one on the way though) and no new inks. Waaaah.

Hey Reno people,

I haven't been around here for a while and was wondering if we should get together again.

It has been way too long since the first and last meeting we had

Yes! I have converted at least two other people! No one happened to end up with the Visconti Van Gogh after our last meeting did they. It has been missing since then :). I have many new pens and some new inks.

Was that a Van Gogh? I think the barrista put it on my saucer when he cleared our table. Such a shame.

Really Brioche!? It was indeed.

 

I go there all the time. Maybe I could ask.

I might have just spammed a ton of members (I think 8-9) that had their location listed anywhere in Northern Nevada. I think the 11th 12th may be a bit early, what about the 18th or 19th?

I would love to join y'all. Either weekend is good for me. I am busy on Saturday Mornings, but afternoons are great.

The 18th/19th have come and gone! I'm out of town this weekend, but I'm still eager to meet up. I have a bunch of ink, a syringe or two, and a dozen sample vials. It'd be fun to look at pens and swap ink. What do you think?

Oh man! I just ran across this thread. I am a Reno person, but am out on a consulting gig and won't be back until June-July. I would love to get involved in a Reno Pen Posse. Maybe I can Skype in when you all decide to get together. Let me know. You can also message me.

New proposed dates anyone?

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      By Misfit · Posted

      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

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @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
