A Blue Herringbone 58 that I just finished restoring Sunday :) Very proud of my work, I must say.

 

Congratulations, Bluejay. How does it write?

Thanks!! It writes with a nice fine-medium line, quite wet actually. It's a DURO nib but has some flex too it as well. If anything , it's almost too wet for my liking. Do you think it would be sacrilegious to adjust it? Even thought about having it ground to an italic, but not sure if I should mess with a vintage nib like that.

The Duro Pen, 770M and Dandy (moderne) :)

 

Very nice indeed. I like the stepped clip theme. :thumbup:

 

Love the photo...great background.

Thanks Malcolm - I am glad you picked up the theme. I love those clips.

 

The background is a piece of art from a friend - I love it too :D

I have just bought a Conway Stewart 15 with a broad wet nib, and it is a dream to use.

 

Congratulations. :thumbup:

 

The 15 is a really good pen.

 

I'm using a black 286 today, another CS classic.

      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!

      @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

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
